@Gaahbbriel Folks say she hits with a semi-western, but there are times she hits with an eastern.

WOW it's pretty flat not topspin, i thought.

[djollyboy]

@JacKKyKung me to! i was expecting something complicated, this is awesome!

[PofV]

This is a flat, not topspin, forehand. Her racket is moving up after the ball has left. To see a definitive topspin watch a Nadal slow-mo. His racket is moving upwards before and during contact.

[mysteriekiller]

I can tell you that it's not completely flat, but realtively flat. There is definitely topspin on it.

[ryanrenesis]

even the flattest shot has a minute rate of topspin on it -_-

On the drive, it helps to keep the ball low; it shortens the balls travel time to the other end of the court and reduces any hope of the opponent running it down.

A high topspin drive would have a high trajectory and a slower travel time due to the arc over the net. Unless the player is Rafael Nadal, it's not a good idea to give the opponent any opportunities at all. Hit topspin... it better be good, or keep the drive low and get it off the court before the opponent can breath.
