Soderling showed a test of character on 2009 French Open but he showed his ability way back on 2007 Wimbledon against then Ranked no.2 Rafa in the second round. He came back from 2 sets and a break down to take it to 5th set, and matched Rafa shot for shot but his inexperience at the top level proved costly and lost the 5th set when serving 4-5 behind.

If only he had a coach like Magnus Norman that time around the scenario could be altogether a different one, but all said its good to see Soderling finally proving his ability to play at the big level.

In my view he looks a complete player with a good backhand and strong forehand and a Super serve motion,he also as proven time and again that his stamina levels are good enough to fight a 5 set match.

Rising of Soderling could be a real headache for many top seeds from Rafa,Murray to Nole, his game some how suits to Federer's game and I doubt he could beat him on GS as of now but may be in the future he has a chance.

Soderling and Del Potro,Roddick,Verdasco,Tsonga playing well means the top seeds will be tested at Quartfinal stage itself [provided the top 4 seeds get an easy draw till then] and I wont be surprised if some of them get knocked out early before reaching semifinals.

I Wish Soderling be put on Rafa's draw again on US open so we can see how they two match up in the revenge match, and Roddick in Murray's Quarter and Verdasco in Roger's quarter and Tsonga in Djokovic quarter would be a great lineup.
