Great minds think alike. I was on the brink of posting a comment along the same lines.
Over rated and over hyped........as we were discussing only yesterday.

soderling is a one dimensional brainless oaf. His game is built heavily around his serve and his monstrous forehand. But when either shot isnt working his game becomes a bundle of unforced errors. Its quite hilarious to watch at times.
