Reports last year indicated that Sky Sports will become the new home of tennis in the UK as they would buy the right previously owned by Amazon Prime however it's not yet gone through.
Amazon Prime held the rights to tennis in the UK for a while but according to a report last year, the sport was supposed to move over to Sky Sports. According to the report, both ATP and WTA tennis would be shown over there from 2024 but according to the newest information available, it's not yet been signed.
It's not clear why the supposedly signed deal wasn't already confirmed publicly by Sky Sports but there might be some minor discussions going on at the moment. For now, they have refrained from commenting on the matter neither confirming nor denying it. Sky sports already has the rights for US Open which they secured in 2022.
Amazon did not contest the bid opting not to put forward any of their own.
