Points to look for:
- The player is beginning to come up out of his crouch, with his legs starting to straighten.
- Since the player has hit the ball to his opponent's forehand, the player is pushing himself a little to his right, so that he will finish his recovery in the center of the angles available to his opponent.
- The player is now watching the opponent as well as the flight of the ball.
- The playing arm has been allowed to become straight as part of the follow through.
