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]

Attendance is strictly limited to 1,900 people per day to ensure that every guest has a view of both the tennis and the jewellery on display.[2]

The tournament was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom.[3][4] The tournament was also cancelled in 2022 due to renovations at Stoke Park. It is set to return on June 20, 2023.[5]
