MIAMI (Reuters) - David Miley has confirmed that he will run for president of the International Tennis Federation (ITF) but said on Thursday he was being handcuffed in his bid by a new code of ethics that prevents him from campaigning.

The 60-year-old former Irish national tennis champion is aiming to unseat American David Haggerty, who was elected to the top job in 2015 and is expected to seek a second four-year term.
