FEATURE: Departing boss Scott still trumpeting WTA-ATP fusion

Departing boss Scott still trumpeting WTA-ATP fusionMiami  - Departing WTA boss Larry Scott admitted on Wednesday that his failure to be chosen last year for the top ATP job may have indirectly contributed to his leaving the women's game to move into domestic university sports administration.

The men's position was handed to attorney Adam Helfant, a lawyer now trying to find his depth in the sport after almost three months on the job.

"There is some connection in the sense that the major accomplishments of women's tennis, I think, have put the women's tour in very good shape," Scott said.
