USTA Chief Govt, Skilled Tennis, and US Open Match Director Stacey Allaster was honored with the Billie Jean King Management Award on the current Ladies’s Sports activities Basis Annual Salute to Ladies in Sports activities.
In partnership with the Billie Jean King Management Initiative, the Billie Jean King Management Award, offered by Darcie Glazer Kassewitz and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Basis, acknowledges a person or group who demonstrates excellent management and makes important contributions to the development of ladies by means of achievements in sport and the office.
For over 30 years, Allaster has been a passionate and decided advocate for gender equality in tennis — from the $1 billion she generated for feminine gamers as chairman and CEO of the Ladies’s Tennis Affiliation, to her good management as the primary girl event director of the US Open in its greater than 140-year historical past – paving a path to the C-suite that different ladies can observe.
