The Lawn Tennis Association will continue to broadcast the Queen’s Club Championships through a three-year rights extension from BBC Sport.

The agreement will continue to serve audiences until 2027 across all of the TV, radio, and digital services.

For the first time in over 50 years, women will play in the 2025 edition of Queen’s, and a WTA 500 competition will take place the week before the men take to the courts.

In the grass-court preparations for Wimbledon, the London tournament is a traditional event.

The director of BBC Sport, Alex Kay-Jelski, said, “The grass-court season is synonymous with British summer.”

“The women’s tournament at Queen’s kicks off a significant summer of women’s sporting events,” reports BBC Sport.

In the two weeks leading up to the Wimbledon Championships, the agreement also grants the rights to LTA events in Eastbourne and Nottingham.

Women and men competing in all of our events for the first time this year, according to Chris Pollard, LTA’s managing director of commercial and operations.
