David Felgate sacked as Lawn Tennis Association director
David Felgate has been dismissed from his post as the performance director of the Lawn Tennis Association and the new LTA chief executive Roger Draper has named Great Britain's Davis Cup captain Jeremy Bates in the interim.
Also leaving the LTA are tennis operations director Rebecca Miskin and finance director Paul Keen.
Roger Draper took over as the LTA's new head on 3 April and has been quick to make major changes to the governing body for tennis in the UK.
Roger Draper said: "I would like to thank David, Rebecca and Paul for the contribution they have made to British tennis over the last three years.
"All three have worked extremely hard to support British tennis and I wish them all the best in their next ventures.
"An interim LTA leadership team has been appointed to ensure that we move forward with purpose whilst a new structure is created and a new team recruited."
David Felgate had hoped to raise the standards of British tennis at all levels.
