BENGALURU: Indian tennis has imploded, hitting a new nadir. That's the good news. That the game in the country could be rapidly barrelling down a bottomless pit is the disturbing part. Until last week Sumit Nagal was the only Indian ranked in the top-300 of the singles ranking on the men's and women's Tours.
That piece of statistic is abysmal by itself but hold it up against India being the only Asian nation to have made a Davis Cup final, not once, but thrice (1966, 74 and 87) and it's discomfiting.
