Sorry, I made an error, and will write this to avoid confusion. You address the ball by tilting back, stumping the right leg, and bend the LEFT knee, but be sure to rotate the right hip back, at address, as this is the cause of the bent LEFT knee. Now you can swing from that position, single axis, and you should execute the swing properly. Good luck.
