The French Open is the second grand slam of the year, with top tennis stars like Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, and Iga Swiatek playing in the singles in 2023.
This article will look at who has the Ireland/UK TV rights to the 2023 French Open and will show you how you can watch live coverage of the 2023 tournament at Roland Garros.

2023 French Open TV Coverage (Ireland and the UK)
In June 2021, The French Tennis Federation announced that Eurosport (Discovery+) had won exclusive TV rights to broadcast the French Open across Europe starting in 2022 and running until 2026.
This means that if you want to stream the matches live at Roland Garros in 2023 then you are going to need to be a Discovery+ subscriber (Entertainment and Sports Package).
It currently costs €/£6.99 per month to sign up for the Entertainment and Sport package which includes access to live TV coverage of the 2023 tournament at Roland Garros.
You also have the option of signing up for a year for £59.99 for the first year if you are from the UK and for €69.99 per year if you are from Ireland.
If you only want to watch tennis on Discovery+, then the cheapest option probably is to sign up for a month at a time whenever there is a big tournament that Discovery+ has the streaming rights to e.g. Australian Open.
Eurosport’s TV Coverage of the tournament is available to subscribers of BT TV, Sky, and Virgin Media.
