For the First Time,
Fans Will Be Able to Subscribe Directly to Tennis Channel
to Access the Flagship 24-Hour
Network
Tennis Channel will introduce a direct-to-consumer (DTC)
streaming service that merges its flagship 24-hour network with
extensive live and on-demand multicourt coverage, offering fans
unparalleled access to the sport. Available to everyone in the
United States beginning November 12, subscribers can sign up
through the Tennis Channel app or website (www.tennischannel.com)
and choose between a $109.99 annual package or a $9.99 monthly
option.
The streamlined platform integrates all content previously
available through subscription-streaming service Tennis Channel+,
providing more than 10,000 hours of live and on-demand tennis. This
includes replays, highlights and interviews along with press
conferences and a library of series, podcasts and documentaries.
Current subscribers will receive the flagship channel at no extra
charge.
At the same time, cable and satellite video customers that
receive Tennis Channel as part of their linear pay-TV bundle will
also have authenticated access through the network app and website
to the enhanced content previously only available through the
stand-alone subscription streaming service Tennis Channel+, also at
no further cost.
The addition of the Tennis Channel television network further
enhances the app experience, offering exclusive commentary,
in-depth analysis, player interviews and studio-show Tennis Channel
Live. Daily coverage is led by lineup of Hall of Famers, including
Martina Navratilova, Tracy Austin, Jim Courier, Lindsay Davenport
and Andy Roddick.
“Tennis Channel is transforming the way fans connect with the
sport,” said Matt Graham, senior vice president,
direct-to-consumer, Tennis Channel. “By merging our flagship
network with extensive live and on-demand offerings, we’re making
it easier for fans to enjoy the game they love. Subscribers have
total control of their viewing experience, with the ability to
follow their favorite players in real-time, switch between multiple
live matches or sit back and enjoy our 24/7 network.”
The new, all-in-one service provides the most live tennis
coverage anywhere, with more than 100 tournaments and thousands of
matches from both the men’s and women’s tours. This includes full
access to the men’s ATP and women’s WTA seasons, featuring every
1000, 500 and 250 event, as well as their year-end championships.
International team competitions Davis Cup (men’s national teams),
Billie Jean King Cup (women’s national teams), United Cup (mixed
men’s and women’s international teams) and Laver Cup (men’s Europe
vs. World teams) are also available on the platform. It also
carries exhibition events that showcase the sport’s biggest
stars.
The Tennis Channel app is accessible on iOS, Android, Apple TV,
Amazon Firestick and Roku, with plans for expansion to additional
platforms.
