Polish tennis chief quits after abuse allegations

The head of the Polish Tennis Association (PZT) resigned on Thursday, the governing body said in a statement, after he became embroiled in a sexual abuse scandal.

In an interview with news website Onet published on Monday, lawmaker Katarzyna Kotula accused PZT head Miroslaw Skrzypczynski of sexually assaulting her when he was a coach in the early 1990s.
