Hi Tri,

The main thing is to move them away from their backhand corner.  You can start with a short serve or return to the forehand to get them away from their comfortable position.

These players may also have a weaker middle area if you go slightly to the forehand side of their body as they tend to be very square to the table or even have their right foot slightly forward.
