Warner Bros. Discovery Inc.’s TNT Sports division acquired the US rights to the French Open, taking the tennis tournament away from Comcast Corp.’s NBC Sports starting in 2025.
The media giant struck a 10-year deal with the French Tennis Federation to feature live matches on its TNT network, with other live coverage across its TBS and truTV channels, according to a statement on Tuesday. All nearly 900 live matches will also be available on WBD’s Max streaming platform.
