BeIN Sports, the international pay-TV broadcaster, has retained exclusive rights to tennis’ men’s ATP Tour across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) until 2028.
Under the renewed deal with ATP Media, the tour’s broadcast arm, BeIN will have broadcast rights in 24 countries in the region.
BeIN will continue to deliver coverage of the ATP Tour, including all ATP Masters 1000 events, all ATP 500 events, certain ATP 250 events, and the season-ending ATP Finals.
The first of nine ATP Masters 1000 events will be held at Indian Wells between March 5 and 16, followed by the Miami Open from March 19 to 30.
BeIN will provide coverage in Australia and Southeast Asia, where the network also holds exclusive broadcast rights.
The Qatar-based operator has had a partnership with the ATP in the MENA region since 2014.
The extended agreement maintains BeIN’s strong tennis portfolio, as it also holds exclusive rights to the women’s WTA Tour, alongside all four grand slams.
Earlier this month, the pat-TV heavyweight also announced the extension of its exclusive rights to the Australian Open in MENA through to 2029.
Mark Webster, CEO of ATP Media, said: “It was a very easy decision for us to renew our long-standing partnership with BeIN Sports in the MENA region. We look forward to continuing to work with BeIN Sports over the coming years.”
