Answer: Maria’s Brother.
Explanation:
From the given information we know that the Maria’s brother and daughter are on the opposite side of the net.
To find the best player we will have to consider 2 different scenarios.
Let us consider the following;
M = Maria;
B = Maria’s brother;
D = Maria’s daughter &
S = Maria’s Son.
For better understanding lets represent this graphically;
Scenario 1:
B________S
D M
Considering S to be the worst player, we have him diagonally opposite Maria’s daughter.
Since the best player and the worst player are on the same side.
We can say, Maria’s brother is the best player.
Scenario 2:
B________M
D S
Considering Maria to be the worst player, we have the son diagonally opposite Maria’s brother.
Since the best player and the worst player are on the same side.
We can say, Maria’s brother is the best player.
So in both scenario’s we find out that Maria’s brother is the best player.
