Mary Barsaleau
Special to The Desert Sun

Does location of your third shot drive matter?
You hit a strong serve, the opponent floats their return, and you’re ready to drive. If you’re like me, you’re probably too excited to hit the ball as hard as you can to even think about where you should be placing your third.

* i do really like this video 
. sarah's body and arm positions are clearly approaching all balls ahead of the body.
. sarah's body and arm positions are clearly approaching all balls ahead of the body. her stance is not labelled as open or closed yet she covers the court with an approach to ' follow the ball' which is my strong belief especially behind the non volley line.
her discussion of triangulation is spot-on too. -Hope
