LONDON (Reuters) - The ATP is deep in talks with a host of experts from within and outside the sport as it seeks a new leadership team to help heal rifts in elite men’s tennis and lead it into a new era of growth and opportunity, a director of the sport’s governing body told Reuters at Wimbledon.

Walkouts and resignations in recent weeks have caused friction in the corridors of power and Briton Alex Inglot said the sport could be in line for a shake-up, including the creation of new leadership roles, and the introduction of external experts to help break deadlock in discussions.
