A player "Shapes" to play a shot when they take their backswing. Shaping is not an attempt to hit the ball. It is considered an attempt to hit the ball when the downswing starts.

When a player shapes to play the ball on the forehand, then brings their racket across their body to take the ball on the backhand, this is not considered to be "turning" or "making a second attempt".

The ball does not need to be struck for an attempt to be made. How to add images to Members' Forum posts and replies here...
