In a tennis match, a rally is being played out.

Player A hits a shot with a ridiculous amount of back spin, which goes over the net onto player B's side, bounces once inside the court, then due to the crazy amount of spin on the shot, it bounces up and back over the net into player A's side, and bounces a second time.

Now, how would the umpire call that?

Player A wins the point.

As McKee says.

Now further to your scenario: Player A hits his shot which bounces on the other side of the net but then spins back over the net to his own side. Player B, standing at the net, reaches over the net (without touching it obviously) and hits the ball as it drops , bouncing it onto Player A's side and away for the point. Has Player B won the point?








I think he has.

Yep the only time a player can hit the ball on the wrong side of the net is if it bounces up and the wind or spin takes it back over the net.
