TNT Sports’ second year with Roland Garros will bring back many of the key voices that made the event such a success in 2025, plus a few new additions to the commentator lineup.
New this year will be former player Genie Bouchard, who joins TNT as an on-site contributor. Bouchard is repped by GSE’s John Tobias. Also moving up to linear TV this year is former player John Isner (repped by Top Notch Management’s Sam Duval), who is getting an on-air studio and match commentating role after working primarily for Bleacher Report coverage in 2025.
Venus Williams is back again for TNT this year, but in a different role. Last year, Williams did more storytelling segments on French culture around traditional match coverage. This year, she’ll fill a more traditional role as special guest analyst during the quarterfinals, semifinals and women’s final.
Andre Agassi is also returning as an analyst for the semifinals and finals. Others returning as match and studio analysts include John McEnroe, Lindsay Davenport, Jim Courier, Caroline Wozniacki and Chris Eubanks. Eubanks, repped by WME, also has a new multiyear deal with TNT to continue doing Roland Garros coverage (on top of his ESPN majors and Tennis Channel coverage).
Patrick McEnroe, Sloane Stephens, CoCo Vandeweghe, Sam Querrey and Mary Joe Fernandez are also back as studio analysts/reporters. Studio hosts include Adam Lefkoe, Patrick McEnroe and Mark Petchey, while Brian Anderson and Alex Faust will do match play-by-play. Jon Werthheim also returns to do features.
Eubanks gave a lot of credit for the Year 1 success to the production team at TNT Sports under EVP and Chief Content Officer Craig Barry.
“The producers do a great job of building that atmosphere and they want it to be fun,” Eubanks told SBJ. “They want it to be quick witted and off-the-cuff. And they want us to banter back and forth. So they give us an environment, they encourage us to be ourselves and be authentic … especially with different broadcasts and different shows. Like the truTV whip-around show -- that was so different. They’re like, ‘Yeah, just talk over points, flip back and forth between different matches, just have at it.’”
