I'm shocked that Nirmal Shekar is no more. With his passing, a part of the sports experience has been blown out.
Blessed with the talents to bring a match back to life and etch it deeper in one's memory for the ages, Nirmal held court the day after the curtains came down on a grand slam event; his prose just as smooth as a Federer backhand and as moving as an Arantxa win.
Grass - Federer
Clay - Nadal
Turf - Djokovic
Paper - Nirmal Shekar
Adios Nirmal.
