Episode 168: Stacey Allaster
Hello and welcome to the Women Leaders in Sports Podcast! I’m your host, Patti Phillips, CEO of Women Leaders. As we gear up for the 2025 US Open this month, we’re celebrating a historic moment - it will be the final tournament under the leadership of today’s guest, Stacey Allaster. Stacey, Chief Executive of Professional Tennis at the USTA, made history in 2020 as the first woman to serve as U.S. Open Tournament Director in its 140-year history. Her legacy of leadership, innovation, and excellence will carry on through the exceptional team she’s built. Since joining the USTA in 2016, and as former WTA Chairman and CEO, Stacey has championed equal pay, fan engagement, and the global growth of women’s tennis, working alongside legends like Billie Jean King. As Stacey’s career evolves with new priorities and horizons, she stays grounded in her vision statement: a life of fun, freedom, and impact. Keep listening for more takeaways from Stacey - and remember, We Are Women Leaders!
