How to return AI drop shots?

[airjuice25]

I'm growing very frustrated with trying to return shots close to the net. I run towards the ball, press top spin or flat shot and my player does nothing. Doesn't even attempt to return the ball, just runs by it.

What am I doing wrong?

same here, completely frustrated and there is no reason for it.
