footfault
- n a fault that occurs when the server in tennis fails to keep both feet behind the baseline
- These of course were fostered by the typical non-playing criticism, from the stands, of non-playing Captain Shields, who complained of the non-giving of a footfault against Seixas.
- But a footfault was called and he had to serve over.
- Then a footfault judge called a point against Wood.
