Hey! Yes some players do find it tricky playing against left handers. I would say focus on the serve and return and placement of your shots because these are the main areas that are different against left handers.

Try to force the wide into the forehand, many left handers struggle in this area, to do this well you will need to trust your backhand to find that wide angle.

Also I would recommend trying to get some practice against a left handed player if possible just to become more used to and comfortable with playing them 🙂
