8 June 2025

Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) and the French Tennis Federation (FFT) have extended their agreement that will see Roland-Garros continue to be broadcast on its channels and platforms on a pan-European basis* (excluding France) until at least 2030. 

The new deal, which will extend WBD’s relationship with the FFT to over 40 years, was signed today (Sunday, 8 June) by French Tennis Federation President Gilles Moretton and President & Managing Director, WBD Sports Europe Andrew Georgiou ahead of this afternoon’s men’s singles final at Roland-Garros.

Eurosport, which first broadcast Roland-Garros in 1989, will continue to show the tournament on its linear channels across mainland Europe with TNT Sports the exclusive broadcaster in the UK and Ireland. Coverage of every court will remain available to watch live on its streaming platform HBO Max from 2026**.

TNT Sports and Eurosport’s exclusive live coverage of every match at Roland-Garros is complemented by its commitment to content and telling every story on and off the court across all platforms. Its 360-degree tennis ecosystem expands the storytelling beyond the live action, and its localised social media and digital platforms including TNT Sports and Eurosport - which serve up content in 19 languages across Europe - have amassed in excess of 620 million video views with close to 30 million social media engagements so far at Roland-Garros in 2025.

Whether it’s match reports, highlights, engaging player-led short formats or exclusive bonus content featuring an unrivalled cast of tennis legends and on-air presenters, this immersive and comprehensive approach to storytelling brings fans closer to the action and players competing and plays an integral role in attracting new fans to the sport.

Gilles Moretton, French Tennis Federation President, said: “We are delighted to continue our long-standing partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery, whom we thank for their continued trust – demonstrated by the renewal of this agreement.

“The excellent audience figures for Roland-Garros in Europe are a testament to the FFT’s ability to organize an increasingly appealing tournament, and the ability of Warner Bros. Discovery to promote our tournament to our many European fans. This renewed partnership is a perfect illustration of our growing ambitions on the international stage,”

Andrew Georgiou, President & Managing Director, WBD Sports Europe, said: “We are thrilled that we will continue to broadcast a tournament that enjoys the prestige and heritage of Roland-Garros and we are delighted that we will continue to deliver live coverage of an event that engages and resonates with millions of viewers across Europe.

“There are not many partnerships in sport that span more than 40 years but, with this deal, we are proud to achieve that milestone and would like to thank the French Tennis Federation for their lasting trust and support for what we do to share the great stories of Roland-Garros with millions of fans each and every year.”

The new long-term agreement deepens WBD’s links with the FFT. In addition to extensive and widespread coverage in Europe*, 2025 represents the first edition of Roland-Garros that will be broadcast live on TNT Sports in the United States, its streaming platform Max as well as TBC and truTV.

Warner Bros. Discovery registered record numbers in a host of countries – including Italy - after the first 12 days of competition in this year’s edition of Roland-Garros. Record audience numbers were reported in Italy, via Eurosport, owing to the success of local hero Jannik Sinner (record average audience numbers for his fourth round match) as well as the best quarter-final match ever as Sinner beat Alexander Bublik in straight sets. The UK, meanwhile – via TNT Sports – recorded its best ever women’s semi-final in terms of average audience numbers as Aryna Sabalenka defeated reigning champion Iga Swiatek.

On Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming platforms**, double digit increases in terms of unique video viewers have been reported in Italy (36%) and the Netherlands (+46%) with further increases in the UK (+7%) and Germany (+8%) after the first week of competition.
