The Lawn Tennis Association better listen up because Tim Henman has spoken. The former British number 1 player has some ideas on the current stage of Britain tennis and also has some advices on how to improve it.
"You have to be accountable for results," Henman said. "John Lloyd lost his job as Davis Cup captain because of poor results so there is going to come a time when the LTA have to look at themselves and say "What are our results like?"
There were words coming out back a while ago that the LTA would recruit Henman as coach for British Davis Cup but that did not happen.
"It's not through lack of effort but you have to question whether it's going in the right areas," he added. "I would say it's not. It's not working."
If there is any good news, the USA is also in a dump when it comes to talent. But education is more important.
