Channel Nine has won the Australian Open tennis broadcast rights from rival television network Seven, starting from 2020.
The $300-million, five-year agreement with Tennis Australia covers rights for broadcast, streaming, mobile, digital and social platforms for the Australian Open, the Hopman Cup, and the Brisbane, Sydney and Hobart internationals, Nine said in a statement.
The deal brings an end to the Seven Network's partnership with the Australian Open, which dates back to 1973.
