Our broadcast this season will feature our already covered regions of EU, NAE and Brasil, but now we’re adding NAW back to the schedule. Additionally, our friends at the Australian Open will provide an OCE broadcast. Finally, we are also adding German, Spanish and French broadcasts for the EU region.”
