How to pressurize a player who plays the early and is always close to the table?

I tried to put push or drives in wide forehand and Backhand but the player is good at both. I get caught after returning him wide and then change in direction often catch me out.

Hi Ryan,

Often the middle area can be a good place to target because this is there are they need to make a decision between the forehand and backhand. 

Give this area a try and see how you get on.

If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
