LTA may ask Henman to become Cup captain
Tennis newsThe LTA may ask Tim Henman to take over as Davis Cup captain after Britains fifth consecutive defeat in Davis Cup under John Lloyd, according to The London Telegraph. The governing body would want Henman to guide the team in their Euro-African Zone Group Two relegation play-off against Turkey in July, said the paper.
The London Times had earlier said that Greg Rusedski is being primed to become Great Britains fifth Davis Cup captain in ten years, though the LTA denied having made any formal approach.
Lloyd has acknowledged his job may be in jeopardy but has not yet indicated an intention to resign. His contract with the LTA runs till the end of the year.
The future of Paul Annacone, Britains Davis Cup coach, is also unclear.
