The BBC has extended its contract to broadcast Wimbledon for an additional three years, taking its partnership with the All England Club through to 2027.
The agreement means the Grand Slam remains free to air across BBC television, online and radio.

Quite simple. It brings in the audience. That's what it's all about.
I don't watch it myself, by the way!

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Put it all on iPlayer
Work out how many hours of Wimbledon there has been in the past two weeks.
18 courts x 6-8 hours a day each x for 10+ days
Two football matches a week and they say it's too much

That's what's wrong with sports governing bodies, they go after the money.
For many sports they jeopardise the future of their sports by going after the money. Putting coverage behind a paywall lowers participation as less people see it and are inspired to take that sport up.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
I wonder if they will opt-out of the live coverage for some ad breaks - done it before.
ITV live coverage of FA Cup Everton v Liverpool
ITVHD coverage of World Cup 2010 - England v USA
They went to an ad-break during live boxing too and missed the end of the fight - and cut to ITN News studio preparing for a later programme in a Champions League semi-final.
And still haven't discovered that UHD and 5.1 audio is now common place.
I had US tv coverage of the England v Denmark game on a second screen here - less ad breaks and shorter than ITV's coverage.
