BeIN SPORTS, the leading sports broadcaster in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), will continue to be the exclusive media rights-holder of the US Open through 2027.

beIN has held the exclusive rights to the US Open for more than a decade, and the extension solidifies beIN as the only platform in the MENA region where viewers can watch all four Grand Slam events.

“The US Open and beIN have together delivered spectacular tennis to fans in the Middle East and North Africa for many years, and we are so very pleased to continue our partnership” said Kirsten Corio, Chief Commercial Officer, USTA. “As the world’s best tennis players, including Ons Jabeur, compete on our Grand Slam stage, we look forward to continuing to expand the US Open audience throughout the region for many years to come.”

beIN will feature both Arabic- and English-language coverage of the US Open over the next five years.

“beIN and the US Open have enjoyed a highly successful partnership over the past decade, bringing to the Middle East and North Africa some of the most memorable tennis matches of recent years,” Mohammad Al-Subaie, CEO of beIN MENA, added.

“Interest in tennis is at an all-time high in this region and we are delighted to have the broadcast rights for five more years. Continuing to be the home of Grand Slam tennis gives us the chance to share more special sporting moments with our subscribers and we look forward to another exciting tournament later this month.”
