ESPN and the United States Tennis Association have extended their relationship with a new 12-year agreement that will see the US Open continue to air on ESPN through 2037.

The extension of the deal, which begins in 2026 and is ESPN’s longest-running tennis agreement, will continue to make ESPN the home of the entire US Open in the U.S., Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as in Canada on TSN and RDS. Under the new pact, the USTA will take over as host broadcaster from ESPN, which will focus its production resources on more than 260 hours of annual coverage scheduled for the U.S., as well as hundreds of hours for international territories.

The deal marks expanded streaming rights for ESPN, giving the network the flexibility to roll out additional ways for American fans to watch US Open content. The expanded Fan Week coverage will include daily live broadcasts on ESPN2 and distribution of the primetime exhibition events that debuted on ESPN platforms this year. Availability of all games on all courts each day will also be included.
