Such a sad loss to the tennis world. He had a tremendous impact on the game. His legacy will live on, through all the players he coached and all the knowledge he shared with coaches.
Guys, I am at the IMG Academy (formerly Bolletieri Academy) stringing at the Eddie Herr tournament. I was given this information this morning and forwarded it to Tim. It seems, however, that Nick is still with us!
He has not passed, after all, and was photographed enjoying apple pie earlier today.
