I'm having trouble positioning myself when an opponent is playing into the front corners. Often I'll play a drop shot, move back to the T and then find myself in a spot where the opponent is completely blocking my view of the ball, often even after they've played it.

Should I be clearing to a position that allows me to always have eyes on the ball? If so, where would this position be? Alternatively, are my opponents doing something wrong? There are several cases where I don't even see the ball until it has already bounced after my opponent plays it, and against certain opponents my drop shots feel like they're more of a liability than an asset.

Any tips would be much appreciated.
