Tennis star Tim Henman targets world's top 20 return
Tim Henman hopes for a return to the world's top twenty and is aiming for a place in Britain's Davis Cup team in 2007.
Tim Henman said: "I want to stay healthy and see where that can take me. I've still got a lot of passion.
"If I can play half-decently next year, there's no reason why I can't get back into the top twenty - and if I can play well, I can improve from there.
"I've always wanted to keep my options open (on the Davis Cup) and I've spoken to Jeremy Bates and now John Lloyd."
Tim Henman, who is nearly 32, retired from Davis Cup tennis in 2005 having been with the team for more than 10 years, however, he doesn'tt rule out a return for 2007.
"I feel like there's more chance than there was," Tim Henman explained and added:"At the end of 2004 I was tired of that whole scenario, but with Andy Murray coming along and Greg Rusedski still involved, there's a chance."
Tim Henman confirmed as well that he would continue working with his part-time coach Paul Annacone, whether the American coach takes a senior post with the Lawn Tennis Association or not.
