Karl Budge became tournament director of the ASB Classic in July 2012.
Karl Budge felt the time was right to step down as tournament director of the ASB Classic. Budge will be leaving the role at the end of next month, bringing down the curtain on a role he’s had since July 2012. Over his nine years at the helm, Budge transformed the men’s and women’s tennis tournaments into quaint events that would have one or two players people would have heard of each year, into two of New Zealand’s premier sporting events. As well as winning numerous awards for being the best tournaments for their size in the world, Budge was able to bring to New Zealand the biggest stars in the game, including Serena and Venus Williams, Caroline Wozniacki, Naomi Osaka and Bianca Andreescu on the women’s side and Dominik Thiem, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Denis Shapovalov, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Juan Martin del Potro on the men’s.
