This isn’t just a routine renewal. Sportradar’s multi-year extension with Wimbledon is a power grab for control over the data that drives modern sports betting. For bettors, it means the odds you see mid-match will come straight from the source—no third-party guesswork. For competitors, it’s a shutout from one of tennis’s most iconic events. This deal cements Sportradar as the top dog in high-stakes sports data.
Sportradar announced the extension today. The rights first came via its 2025 acquisition of IMG ARENA. The deal runs beyond 2026 and covers both The Championships main draw and qualifying rounds. It keeps Sportradar’s exclusive global hold on official data and AV betting rights intact. The All England Club, which hosts Wimbledon, is the partner here.
Sportradar delivers over 40,000 tennis matches annually to global clients. The extension lets it weave official data deeper into innovative products. Think expanded micro betting—like wagering on the next point’s outcome—or player-specific markets. All powered by real-time odds to boost in-play engagement. Moritz Gloeckler of Sportradar said this will make every point, game, and set more immersive.
In live betting, data is everything. Sportradar’s exclusive access means faster, more accurate odds than anyone else. Competitors will struggle to keep up. This could widen Sportradar’s lead in the sports data and betting rights market. It also sets a template for how top events manage their data assets.
The All England Club has good reason to extend. Paul Davies, their associate director, stressed accurate data protects event integrity. With betting scandals rising, official data cuts manipulation risks. It also fuels innovative fan engagement—something every major sport wants. This partnership balances integrity and growth.
Other top tennis tournaments will likely sign similar exclusive data deals with Sportradar in the next 18 months.
