Soderling had a huge problem with his backhand though. in a match. Soderling needs to use the pointing finger-trick above the thumb on the racquet, and do so whenever he feels like it. That is a part to djokovic's success. When the pointing finger is above the thumb, ofcourse it sometimes must be some space between the pointing finger and the thumb. Why? Because It is more comfortable.

This is a pattern emerging. The tragic story of Kyrgios is just the same. Terrible pressure from himself, his country and the media, then social media, meant that he could not bear to lose and then became so depressed and suicidal that he became injured all the time. Now not playing but commentating he is contributing to the sport that he loves. How many other great sportspersons will end up like this as pressure forces them into extra depression? We need to care for them.
