Maes said: “This was a very difficult decision for me and was entirely driven by personal reasons. I am very proud of the progress made in British women’s tennis during my time at the LTA and firmly believe we are heading in the right direction.

“I wish all involved in British tennis every success going forward and am confident that we will continue to see positive results on and off the court.”

Player director Steven Martens and Nigel Sears, head coach of women’s tennis, will continue to run women’s tennis for the LTA.

Martens added: “I would like to thank Carl for his work in developing women’s tennis in Britain over the last two and a half years.

“Carl has played a large part in the improvements in this area and has built strong foundations for the sport.

“There is still plenty of work to be done and I am confident that, under the guidance of Nigel Sears and the team, women’s tennis will go from strength to strength.”
