TENNIS CHANNEL ADDS JIM COURIER, MARY CARILLO AND FORMER WNBA STAR LISA LESLIE TO ON-AIR TEAMS DURING “FIFTH SLAMS” IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND MIAMI THIS MARCH
Three More Days of Live Coverage Planned for BNP Paribas Open and Sony Open Tennis, Upping Combined Total to 17 Days Across Three Weeks, 180-Plus Live Hours Overall
Hall of Famer Tracy Austin Returns to Host Live at the BNP Paribas Open
Tennis Channel will be the “March Madness” home for tennis fans again in 2014, as the network offers more than 180 live hours of combined coverage across 17 days from two of the sport’s most prestigious events. Other than the four majors, no tournament in tennis hosts a larger player field than the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, Calif., and the Sony Open Tennis in Miami, each of which has been referred to as the sport’s “Fifth Slam.” Among the new faces on the network’s on-air team this year will be Hall of Famer Jim Courier, renowned sportscaster Mary Carillo and, making her Tennis Channel debut, women’s basketball legend Lisa Leslie
In the case of the “Fifth Slams” this month, Tennis Channel will devote more than 475 hours to the two events from March 6-30, via daylong match coverage, encore replays and, in Southern California, a half-hour on-site pregame show.
The action gets underway with 12-straight hours of matches in Indian Wells Thursday, March 6, the second day of the 12-day event (complete schedules for both tournaments follow). This is the first time that Tennis Channel will begin its coverage on Thursday – in the past it has started on Friday of the first week or the weekend. With 9 days of live coverage at the BNP Paribas Open this year, including seven days of 12-hour match blocks, Tennis Channel will offer nearly 100 hours of live play and close to 240 overall.
Lead-in show Live at the BNP Paribas Open will air all but one day of Tennis Channel’s live coverage and begin at 1:30 p.m. ET. Set on the grounds of the Indian Wells Tennis Garden within the presence of thousands of tournament attendees, the 30-minute program will be hosted by Hall of Famer Tracy Austin .Joining them in 2014 will be former World No. 1 doubles star Mark Knowles whose championship career includes titles won at the US Open, French Open and Australian Open. Live at the BNP Paribas will bring daily updates, news, special guests, player interviews and analysis to viewers, similar to the network’s on-air approach at the US Open. Throughout the day the grounds-based set will act as a hub for Tennis Channel activity.
With the 2014 launch of its Center Court format, Tennis Channel has taken the round-the-clock approach it pioneered at the majors and BNP Paribas Open and incorporated it into the network’s coverage throughout the year. Based in the channel’s Los Angeles studio – a la the central desk on the grounds of one of the Grand Slams – announcers, analysts and guests will now bounce between simultaneous matches at multiple tournaments worldwide, following the best competition as it take place live, regardless of time zone. As a result, Tennis Channel’s live coverage in essence has become “always major” in that, at any given time, viewers now have the sense that the biggest names are all competing in the same place, as they would at the US Open or French Open. The Los Angeles studio will be used for the network’s Miami telecast.
This year Tennis Channel is adding two days of coverage at the Sony Open Tennis by way of daylong blocks on Wednesday and Thursday of the first week. Last year the network’s coverage in Miami began on the first Friday. The channel’s daily, live coverage runs from Wednesday, March 19, through Wednesday, March 26, and will consist of 12-hour programming blocks on all but two days. Eighty-seven hours of live Sony Open Tennis matches will air on Tennis Channel in 2014, with close to 240 overall.
As part of its coverage of both the BNP Paribas Open and Sony Open, Tennis Channel will air encore replays of all singles quarterfinal, semifinal and championship matches.
On-Air Talent
Hall of Famer Courier and award-winning Olympic, tennis and other-sports broadcaster Carillo are familiar to network viewers at other events during the year. Courier has steadily increased his presence on the channel since joining its US Open team in 2012, adding Wimbledon, the Australian Open, and now the Indian Wells event. Carillo recently expanded her role with the network, and adds the BNP Paribas Open, Sony Open and other events throughout the year to her US Open, French Open and Wimbledon responsibilities.
Along with Haber, Austin, Knowles, Courier and Carillo, this year Lindsay Davenport will be in the booth again for Tennis Channel at Indian Wells, an event she won twice as a singles player and six times in doubles. Yesterday the International Tennis Hall of Fame announced Davenport’s election to the prestigious organization; she will be inducted this summer.
Basketball legend Lisa Leslie, arguably the greatest women’s hoops star of all time, will make her Tennis Channel debut as part of the BNP Paribas Open this year. Leslie, a four-time Olympic gold medalist and two-time WNBA champion, will handle grounds reporting during the tournament and appear in select tournament desk segments.
Tennis Channel’s Sony Open Tennis team in Miami will feature Davenport, Haber, Carillo, and Knowles, along with 2000 Australian Open doubles champion Rennae Stubbs Based in Los Angeles, former player Leif Shiras will be part of the Sony Open Tennis team as well, bringing matches to viewers from Tennis Channel’s Center Court studio beside Austin and fellow former player Jimmy Arias .
