Craig Tiley will become the CEO of the US Tennis Association after 13 years at Tennis Australia
- On Tuesday, the U.S. Tennis Association announced Craig Tiley will take over as CEO this year, replacing Lew Sherr who left last year after the US Open.
- Tiley's departure closes a more than two-decade chapter at Tennis Australia, where he rose from director of player development to CEO and led the Australian Open; he said he is excited about TA's future and would not leave if it were in bad shape.
- Under Tiley, TA strengthened its player pathway and the Australian Open broke attendance and revenue records this year.
- Tiley will stay for months to oversee the handover as Tennis Australia board considers successors including Tom Larner, Craig Morris, Stephen Farrow, Peter Johnston and Cameron Pearson.
- USTA leaders praised Tiley's global credibility and grassroots record, as TA discusses expanding the Australian Open into Olympic Park with the Victorian government and Collingwood Football Club.
