ATP Tour serves three-year BeIN Sports extension in Australia
ATP Tour coverage will remain on BeIN Sports in Australia for a further three-years, following ATP Media’s renewal with the Qatari pay-TV provider.
The renewal kicks in from 2025, running until the end of 2027, and includes all ATP Masters 1000 events, ATP 500 competitions, and the ATP Finals, as well as the WTA Tour, Davis Cup, and the Billie Jean King Cup.
BeIN Sports first acquired Australian broadcast rights to the London-headquartered men’s international tennis circuit in 2021.
The extended agreement strengthens BeIN’s foothold in Australia, where the broadcaster also holds exclusive rights to the WTA Tour.
Meanwhile, the ATP Tour and Italian Tennis and Padel Federation (FITP) have struck a five-year hosting rights deal that see will Italy continue to host the ATP Finals until 2030.
This year’s Finals in Turin were attended by a record number of 183,000 spectators.
“Extending our partnership with the ATP Tour reaffirms our commitment to bringing some of the best tennis action in the world to fans in Australia,” said Mike Kerr, Managing Director of BeIN Asia Pacific.
“With the ATP Tour remaining a key part of our extensive sports portfolio, fans can continue to enjoy unrivalled coverage of both men’s and women’s tennis across our platforms.”
