Korn Ferry to search for new USTA CMO

HUNT
The U.S. Tennis Association hired Korn Ferry last month to search for a new chief marketing officer. The USTA owns and operates the U.S. Open Tennis Championships.

Former CMO Sue Hunt left the USTA in December. The USTA declined to comment on the reasons for Hunt leaving. Hunt could not be reached for comment.

Hunt was CMO from 2011 to 2015, having joined the governing body in 2006. Previously, she was with brand marketing firm Colangelo and with L’Oreal, among other stints.
