Paul Davies, head of broadcast, production, and media rights at Wimbledon’s All England Club, added: “We are very excited to be entering a new four-year partnership with Prime Video for Wimbledon in Germany and Austria.

“Prime Video has already demonstrated, including in tennis, how effectively it can deliver major sporting events in important global markets.

“Wimbledon and Germany have a rich heritage and we are excited to see, with Prime’s impressive household penetration, allied with its ambitious on-site production plans, how the championships can be elevated in what we consider to be one of our major European territories.”

Despite choosing not to renew the rights to Wimbledon, Sky will continue to show live tennis as it extended rights to the men's ATP Tour and acquired the women's WTA Tour.
