Boodles Challenge

The Boodles Tennis Challenge (former Boodle and Dunthorne Champions Challenge) is an international five-day tennis exhibition held at Stoke Park in Buckinghamshire, England. It was founded by veteran sports agent Patricio Apey in coordination with Boodles, a luxury jeweller, as an event to help players hone their grass court skills in the lead-up to Wimbledon. It is played in a style similar to the AAMI Classic, giving the players at least three matches each and allowing non-competition players to appear in one match per day. Recent competitors include Andre Agassi, Pete Sampras, Tim Henman, Marat Safin, James Blake, Andy Roddick, Fernando González, David Nalbandian, Novak Djokovic, Fernando Verdasco, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Andy Murray. Since its inception, the Boodles has become a lifestyle event featuring British luxury brands such as Boodles, Veuve Clicquot and H.R. Owen.^[1]
