From
2000 to
2002, Turner Sports held cable rights to the
Wimbledon Championships alongside broadcast network
NBC; TNT would broadcast 61 hours of daytime coverage over the length of the tournament, while
CNN/SI would carry a nightly
prime time block. At the time, it was the third major sports property to be split between NBC and Turner, including the
NBA and
NASCAR. In 2002, with the closure of CNN/SI earlier in the year, its share of the coverage moved to
CNNfn. The package replaced coverage that had been carried by sister division
HBO Sports for 25 years. In June 2024, TNT Sports acquired the American rights to the
French Open, in a multi-year deal (through 2034) that also includes a renewal of
Warner Bros. Discovery's pan-European rights to the tournament with
TNT Sports (UK),
Eurosport, and WBD-owned free-to-air channels in some European territories. ==Commentators==
