Roland Garros banned spectators from drinking in the stands after the grand slam was plagued by poor behaviour
Warner Bros. Discovery and the French Tennis Federation made official on Tuesday what had been revealed over the weekend — the French Open will air on TNT Sports in the United States beginning next year. TV sportscaster Noah Eagle announced at the end of NBC’s coverage on Sunday that TNT Sports would be the new home of the tournament. The 10-year agreement will average $65 million per year, a jump from the $25-30 million a year the French Tennis Federation had received from NBC and Tennis Channel for the U.S. rights.
Emma Raducanu has renewed calls for the WTA to introduce a uniform tennis ball, “at least for each swing”, claiming the constant switching from week to week contributed to her decision to skip the French Open.
