Tennis Channel’s grass court coverage in the UK this summer will enjoy a dose of French flair thanks to a new partnership with Babolat.

Celebrating its 150th year in tennis, the Lyon-based, family-run company has a storied history in the sport. Whether it’s the brand’s legendary VS natural gut strings or its prized Pure Aero racquets, its equipment has been the choice of Wimbledon champions from Bjorn Borg to Carlos Alcaraz. The grass-court season is short but steeped in tradition, making the sponsorship a perfect fit for the time-honored company.
