Courtside
Imran Sheikh
Writes the scene before the score.
About
Imran Sheikh carries a notebook to every final and writes the room before the result: the squeak of shoes, the half-empty stand, the umpire folding the score sheet. Courtside is for features, with slow openings, long sentences and a weakness for the empty hall after the last match. Awards, comebacks and the people behind the draw are the usual subjects.
