Djokovic topspin backhand grip?

I've heard that he uses a semi western one handed backhand grip (two bevels anticlockwise of continental - same as an inverted semi western forehand grip) with his right hand and a full western forehand grip (bottom bevel) with his left hand.

Is that correct?

Are there any other 2 handed backhand players who hit their topspin backhand with their dominant hand in a semi western one handed backhand grip?
 
I do. It's probably because I switch from a 1hbh about 4 years ago and my hand just naturally goes there on a 2h. My grip is probably more like strong eastern/strong eastern, but close enough.

I've attempted in changing my right hand to continental, but I just couldn't get it to stick.

Honestly, if you hold your racket loose with both hands, it doesn't matter that much. I only have trouble with my bh and shanking it when I'm gripping too tight with my right hand. It changes from left-hand dominance to right-hand.

i use the same grip for my backhand but i hit very flat, top spin when needed though. a lot of my friends find it very odd i hit my backhand like this but ive been using this grip ever since i was baby. i also use a sw forehand grip so my grip never changes which always makes me ready for the next shot
