Overview
- Sportico reports Craig Tiley is in advanced talks to become the next USTA CEO after a months-long search.
- The USTA said it has no news to share at this time, indicating no finalized agreement has been announced.
- A roughly six-month process run by search firm Elevate with a USTA board committee identified Tiley as the leading candidate.
- If a contract is signed in the coming weeks, it remains unclear whether Tiley would stay through the Australian Open set for Jan. 12–Feb. 1.
- Interim co-CEOs Brian Vahaly and Andrea Hirsch continue to lead as the USTA manages record 2024 revenue, heavy reliance on the U.S. Open, and an $800 million venue overhaul.
