TNT Sports Reaches Expansive Agreement with French Tennis Federation to Be New Home of Roland-Garros in the U.S. Beginning in 2025

TNT Sports, a division of Warner Bros. Discovery, has reached a groundbreaking 10-year agreement with the French Tennis Federation to add Roland-Garros to its portfolio of premium sports rights in the U.S. beginning in 2025. This new expansive deal – building on Eurosport’s 35-year relationship with Roland-Garros – will make Warner Bros. Discovery the largest global broadcast partner to Roland-Garros and it will bring fans the most comprehensive coverage of the prestigious event ever in the United States.

Per the agreement, TNT Sports will exclusively present all live action from the Parisian Grand Slam in the U.S. including: 

• Featured live matches on TNT, with additional live coverage across TBS and truTV;
• truTV with all-day studio, match and whiparound coverage;
• All live matches available on Max – nearly 900 matches across all competitions – including simulcasts of matches airing on TNT, TBS and truTV;
• In-depth highlights, behind-the-scenes and ancillary content airing across all platforms (TNT, TBS, truTV, Max, Bleacher Report, House of Highlights and HighlightHER).

“TNT Sports is thrilled to partner with the French Tennis Federation and exclusively present unprecedented coverage of Roland-Garros – one of the most prestigious sports events every year – across our full array of platforms,” said Luis Silberwasser, Chairman and CEO, TNT Sports. “Roland-Garros perfectly aligns with our global sports strategy and our commitment to adding premium live sports content to our TNT Sports portfolio. We look forward to serving fans with a best-in-class content experience and providing them with direct access to more live Roland-Garros coverage than ever before.”

“We’re very proud to sign this agreement with Warner Bros. Discovery, one of the world’s leading media groups. It will enable the Federation to ensure maximum exposure for Roland-Garros in the USA and help further promote the tournament. With this long-term agreement, we aim to win over new fans in this key territory for the FFT,” said Gilles Moretton, President of the French Tennis Federation.

This agreement with TNT Sports in the U.S. now makes WBD the largest global broadcast partner or Roland Garros – known for its famous red clay – building on a long-standing relationship with Eurosport (dating back to 1989), which distributes the event to 55 countries outside the U.S.

TNT Sports, with an emphasis on adopting the latest technology, innovation, and creative storytelling to elevate its coverage of the event, will have an on-site presence, including studio and announcing teams from multiple positions inside Roland-Garros throughout the competition. Additional details on TNT Sports’ Roland-Garros coverage in the U.S. will be announced in the lead up to the inaugural campaign.

The deal was facilitated by IMG, the French Tennis Federation’s exclusive media rights representative in the U.S.
