Users in the country will also be able to follow matches worldwide through MatchCast, the scoring and data platform.

Ken Solomon, president of Tennis Channel, said: “With simultaneous daily tournaments worldwide, at all hours, the sheer volume of coverage and broad-based demand for tennis requires 24-hour, territory-specific, TV-and-digital platforms devoted exclusively to the sport.

“We’ve proven that it works in the US, creating enormous value increases for all stakeholders and media partners, and our initial international launches in Germany, Austria and Switzerland have well exceeded expectations.”

In May, Tennis Channel appointed Deltatre, the international sports media technology services company, to revamp its digital platforms.

The revamped Tennis.com is claimed to be the world’s most trafficked tennis website.
