ESPN inks a new deal to carry Wimbledon for the next 12 years.
All coverage will be live. None of this tape-delayed shit!! FINALLY.
AND an additional bump in hours, more than 140 hours by year 2023!!
Nikki Finke reports:
By 2023, the network said coverage will increase to more than 140 hours. "We are proud to have been a partner of The All England Club the past nine years and are thrilled to be given continuing responsibility for honoring Wimbledon's rich tradition," ESPN and ABC Sports president George Bodenheimer said. "Over the next 12 years, we'll work closely together to move coverage of this great event forward with live coverage on television and using all the latest technologies and screens." ESPN has had rights to early-round matches since 2003.
