Hello. I've noticed during online play and even playing against the AI on harder settings that I have trouble returning serve. I don't think my reaction time is too bad. Can I get some tips on how to get better at returning, especially during online matches. Thanks

hold the normal shot button while the opponent is serving (doing the animation, you should stand in the default return position and just hold the normal shot button) and then your player will move super slowly to where the ball is going right after the opponent makes contact with the ball, giving you a clue to where to move, then you release the shot button,and move a bit left or right accordinly, using the little autopositioning movement as a guide and then at last you hit your preffered shot button again and aim just a little bit to whatever side you want (you can go with normal strike down the middle to a novak style deep return too)

Is a timing thing, as following: hold shot button ---> then react -----> then release shot button and move ----- > then press shot button and aim
