Justin Gimelstob has resigned from the ATP board after being sentenced for assault, saying he has become "a significant burden and distraction".
He was given three years probation and 60 days community service after a "no contest" plea to a battery charge.
Andy Murray and Stan Wawrinka had suggested the American should leave his role as a player representative.
"Given the current climate I do not deserve to be in this position of influence," Gimelstob, 42, said.
Gimelstob, who has also worked as a coach and TV commentator, was sentenced in Los Angeles last week.
