Frequently asked questions
Where can you watch tennis?
It depends on the tournament: the rights change every season and are split between platforms, and they differ from one country to the next. Tennis TV covers the full ATP tour but not the Grand Slams, which are usually shared between other broadcasters. Check who holds the rights to the specific tournament in your country before paying for anything.
Can you watch tennis free and legally?
Watching full matches live almost always requires a subscription, because the rights are sold. What is free and legal is following the point-by-point score on SofaScore or Flashscore, and watching the highlights the tours publish on their official YouTube channels shortly after each match.
Is Tennis TV worth it?
If you follow the ATP tour regularly, yes: it is the only way to watch practically every tournament of the year, including the early-round matches no broadcaster shows. If you only watch the Grand Slams, it does not pay off, because those are exactly what it does not include.
Which app alerts you when a match starts?
SofaScore and Flashscore let you follow specific players and alert you when the match starts, at every set and at the final result. It is the practical way not to miss an Alcaraz match without checking the draw every day, and both features are free.
