The ultimate clay-court spectacle is back and Australian tennis fans won’t miss a single baseline battle. Watch exclusive, comprehensive coverage of Roland Garros 2026 across 9GemHD, 9Now and Stan Sport beginning Sunday, May 24 at 7.00pm AEST.
Paris welcomes the staging of this iconic tournament where prime time coverage will be live and free on the 9Network, plus every match live and on demand on Stan Sport, with Centre Court in 4K UHD.
Hosts and tennis legends Todd Woodbridge and Jelena Dokic will lead the expert analysis and commentary along with their signature deep tactical breakdowns.
A formidable green-and-gold squad is primed to make a major impact across the men’s singles draw. Top-10 powerhouse Alex de Minaur [8] spearheads the Australian charge, backed by a deep lineup of homegrown talent including Thanasi Kokkinakis, Alexei Popyrin, James Duckworth, Alexander Vukic and Rinky Hijikata. Meanwhile, Adam Walton secures his place on the big stage via a wildcard entry.
International heavyweights are tracking toward historic milestones on the men’s side. World No. 1 Jannik Sinner arrives with a target on his back as the man to beat after winning all five Masters 1000 tournaments so far in 2026. The legendary Novak Djokovic [3] continues his relentless hunt for a historic 25th major, while Alexander Zverev [2] looks to assert his dominance on the red dirt.
On the women’s side, Australia will be heavily represented with Daria Kasatkina, Ajla Tomljanovic, Kimberly Birrell, Talia Gibson and fast-rising prospect Maya Joint. Adding to the excitement is teenage sensation Emerson Jones ready to ignite the main draw on a wildcard.
All eyes will be on whether anyone can halt the reign of the queen of clay Iga Swiatek [3], with powerhouse contenders Aryna Sabalenka [1], Coco Gauff [4] and Jessica Pegula [5] leading the charge to disrupt her dominance.
From first-round heartbreaks to championship glory, Nine ensures you have the best seat in the house to experience every rally and point of Roland-Garros 2026.
