Tennis/US Open: Warner Bros. Discovery (Eurosport) extends TV rights in France from 2023

Warner Bros. Discovery, parent company of the pay-TV group Eurosport, has extended its exclusive, full broadcasting rights to the US Open Grand Slam tournament in France from 2023, announced the media and entertainment conglomerate on 27/03/2023. The duration of the new agreement was not communicated.

"This agreement will allow French viewers and internet users to follow the entire tournament - the men's and women's singles and doubles tournaments as well as chair tennis - on all Eurosport platforms, namely Eurosport 1, Eurosport 2, the Eurosport app and Eurosport.fr," explained the group.

Eurosport, which already holds the TV rights to the US Open in France for the 2012-2022 period (two cycles), is thus extending its rights "25 years after the tournament was first broadcast by Eurosport". The group also broadcasts the Australian Open (Grand Slam) and the entire ATP Tour season for the French market.
