Garros in China on its platforms

As part of this agreement, Tencent will provide comprehensive coverage of the Parisian Grand Slam, broadcasting all matches, with a large selection of matches available without a paywall, alongside additional tournament content throughout the event, including Chinese-language commentaries, enhanced editorial programming and complementary features designed for local audiences.

Tencent, a leading digital platform with recognised expertise in sports content production and distribution in China, is already familiar with the Roland-Garros tournament, having previously broadcast the tournament on digital platforms between 2017 and 2022. This new agreement reflects the FFT’s objective of ensuring broad and consistent access to the tournament for Chinese audiences, while supporting the long-term positioning of Roland-Garros in a key international market.

Stéphane Morel, CEO of the French Tennis Federation: "We are pleased to have reached this agreement with Tencent for the broadcast of Roland-Garros in China from 2026. This partnership will allow tennis fans in China to continue following the tournament through widely accessible digital platforms, in a market where interest in tennis continues to develop."
