The German Tennis Federation (DTB) announced this Wednesday that Boris Becker will leave his position as head of the board at the end of this year of men's tennis.
“Working for the DTB for the last three and a half years gave me a huge pleasure. Unfortunately, at this moment I don't have time to continue with this extensive task “, the federation quoted the German star of the tennis in a statement.
Becker took over as director of men's tennis late August 2017. “I will continue linked to the DTB and, if my time allows it and the opportunity arises, I can imagine taking on an even bigger task in the German Tennis Federation “, highlighted the three-time winner of Wimbledon. The DTB announced that the captain of the German Cup team Davis, Michael Kohlmann, will be responsible for the men's area in the future.
