Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) has announced a new extension of its agreement with the French Tennis Federation (FFT) that stablishes that Roland-Garros will continue to be broadcast on its channels and platforms on a pan-European basis (excluding France) until at least 2030, as WBD Sports has claimed in a statement.
The new deal, which will extend WBD’s relationship with the FFT to over 40 years, was signed last Sunday, 8 June, by French Tennis Federation President, Gilles Moretton, and President & Managing Director of WBD Sports Europe, Andrew Georgiou, ahead of the 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 the broadcaster in the UK and Ireland, TNT Sports. Coverage of every court will remain available to watch live on its streaming platform HBO Max from 2026.
Gilles Moretton, French Tennis Federation President, affirmed: “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”, cotinued.
Andrew Georgiou, President & Managing Director, WBD Sports Europe, added: “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. Additionally, 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.
