I see many players adjusting their swing to accommodate the ball height rather than adjusting their feet to hit the ball in their optimal strike zone.
Quick fix: Practice standing back behind the baseline ten feet and rally the ball with your practice partner for a few minutes. Now stand right on top of the baseline and strike the ball on the rise for a few minutes. Both of the court positions feel very different and require different movement skills and timing issues and stroke adjustments. Now adjust to the ball as how you feel most comfortable based upon what you're dealt in an open range exchange; this is more how a real point is played.
The game is about adjusting your timing, strokes, and court positioned based upon what you deliver and what your opponent throws at you! Think outside the box!
