Now are you saying that not a single part of the person fell on the floor, but only fell directly on top of the player on the floor?

When was LGP established by the WF player?

I personally do not care about who was on the floor and what their ranking was. That is not my concern. I am suggesting where is the rules support to call a foul for players simply falling. Was this not during a rebound?
