Where tennis actually airs
Read off the rights deals themselves, not a listings site. The majors are split between two companies and everything else belongs to one channel, so the question is really whether your service has Tennis Channel.
| Channel | What it carries | What you need |
|---|---|---|
| ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC | The Australian Open, Wimbledon and the US Open, every day of each. ABC takes the US Open's Sunday sessions and the men's final. | Fubo, an antenna for ABC, or any live TV service |
| Tennis Channel | Indian Wells, Miami, the other Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 events, the Laver Cup, the ATP Finals and most weeks of the tour | Fubo, YouTube TV, DirecTV Stream (Choice), or Tennis Channel direct at $11.99/month — not Hulu + Live TV |
| TNT and truTV | The French Open, 2025 through 2034 | YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, DirecTV Stream or Sling Orange — not Fubo |
| HBO Max | Every French Open match, streaming, alongside the TNT coverage | HBO Max, a separate subscription |
| ESPN+ (ESPN Unlimited) | Every court at the three ESPN majors, including the outer courts television never shows | ESPN+, a separate subscription |
Worth knowing before you subscribe: Fubo has Tennis Channel and the ESPN networks, which is nearly the whole sport. The gap is the French Open — Fubo carries neither TNT nor truTV, and HBO Max is sold on its own.
The major events, and who has them
The events people actually search for, through next summer. Channels are taken from the broadcaster's own announcement; where none has been made yet the table says so rather than guessing. Dates for the 2027 majors are published in the spring.
| When | Event | Channel | What you need |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aug 31 – Sep 13 | US Open, New York | ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC. Women's final Sat Sep 12 on ESPN; men's final Sun Sep 13 on ABC. Every court on ESPN+. | Fubo or any live TV service; an antenna for ABC |
| Sep 22 – 27 | Billie Jean King Cup Finals, Shenzhen | US broadcaster not announced | — |
| Sep 25 – 27 | Laver Cup, London | Tennis Channel | Fubo, YouTube TV, DirecTV Stream or Tennis Channel direct |

| March 2027 | BNP Paribas Open (Indian Wells), then Miami | Tennis Channel | Same four |
| Late May – early June 2027 | French Open (Roland Garros) | TNT, truTV and HBO Max, with Tennis Channel carrying the first match of each day | YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, DirecTV Stream, Sling Orange or HBO Max — not Fubo |
| Late June – mid-July 2027 | Wimbledon | ESPN and ESPN2, with additional coverage on Tennis Channel and every court on ESPN+ | Fubo or any live TV service |
| Late Aug – mid-Sep 2027 | US Open | ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC, every court on ESPN+ | Fubo or any live TV service |
“Same four” means Fubo, YouTube TV, DirecTV Stream (Choice) or Tennis Channel's own subscription. Tennis Channel is also on most cable and satellite packages; it is not in Hulu + Live TV or Sling's base plans.
Tennis TV questions
What channel is tennis on today?
It depends on the tournament. The Australian Open, Wimbledon and the US Open are on ESPN and ESPN2, with the US Open's Sunday sessions and men's final on ABC. The French Open is on TNT and truTV, streaming on HBO Max. Almost everything in between, from Indian Wells to the ATP Finals, is on Tennis Channel. The list at the top of this page shows what is on today.
How do I watch Tennis Channel without cable?
Fubo, YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream's Choice plan carry Tennis Channel. Hulu + Live TV and Sling's base plans do not. Tennis Channel also sells its own streaming subscription at $11.99 a month or $109.99 a year, which is the cheapest route if tennis is all you want.
What channel is the US Open on?
ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC, with every court streaming on ESPN+ through ESPN Unlimited. In 2026 ABC carried three Sundays: opening day, the round of 16 and the men's final on September 13. The women's final is on ESPN. ESPN holds the US Open through 2037.
Is the French Open on ESPN?
No. Roland Garros moved to TNT Sports in 2025 on a ten-year deal. TNT and truTV carry it on television, HBO Max streams every match, and Tennis Channel adds the first match of each day plus doubles and juniors. Fubo does not carry TNT or truTV, so it is the wrong service for the French Open.
Does Fubo have Tennis Channel?
Yes. Fubo's channel catalogue lists Tennis Channel alongside ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC, which covers three of the four majors and the tour events between them. What Fubo lacks is TNT and truTV, so the French Open needs YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, DirecTV Stream, Sling or HBO Max instead.
What channel is Wimbledon on?
ESPN and ESPN2, with additional coverage on Tennis Channel and every court on ESPN+. ESPN's Wimbledon deal runs through 2035.
