- Scott Lloyd says progress is being made at the elite level
- Britain has more players in top 200 than in last 40 years
The Lawn Tennis Association has insisted British tennis is heading in the right direction a decade since Andy Murray’s first Wimbledon win – although it concedes that more needs to be done.
Speaking exclusively to the Guardian, the LTA chief executive, Scott Lloyd, pointed out that Britain now had more players in the top 200 than at any time in the last 40 years – and was also the only country, apart from Spain, to have produced both male and female grand slam singles champions in the past decade.
