2015 Summer of Tennis on Seven 18 December 2014 2015 Summer of Tennis on Seven With the stars of world tennis descending on Australia – including FEDERER, NADAL, WILLIAMS, DJOKOVIC, STOSUR and KYRGIOS – Seven will serve up more tennis on more platforms than ever before in a whole new world of sports broadcasting. From the Hopman Cup in Perth and the Brisbane International, to Sydney‟s APIA International and the Kooyong Classic in Melbourne, all roads on Seven this summer lead to the first Grand Slam of 2015, the Australian Open. For the first time, in addition to live and exclusive match coverage on Channel 7 and 7TWO, fans will be able to watch every tournament during the Summer of Tennis streamed live on mobile, tablet and desktop devices. This online coverage will also allow fans to watch the match of their choice from any television court throughout the summer – as well as the Channel 7 / 7TWO broadcast. When the action turns to Melbourne Park, Seven‟s coverage will be available through the PLUS7 service on Hybrid (HBB) TV – a first in Australian broadcasting. Fans will also get to choose from up to seven broadcast courts at the Australian Open at any one time. And more than just live streaming, viewers will be able to catch up on match highlights, follow players on social media, interact with other fans and keep an eye on live scores. So whether it‟s on free-to-air TV, the 7Sport app, at 7sport.com.au, or via Hybrid TV, Seven will this year deliver the most comprehensive and compelling coverage of the Australian tennis summer ever seen. And once again the world‟s leading tennis experts from Seven‟s commentary team will guide viewers through all the action. BRUCE McAVANEY will be in the commentary chair throughout the Open, with expert analysis from four- time Grand Slam champion JIM COURIER and, when his playing commitments allow, Australia‟s own LLEYTON HEWITT will also return. Joining them will be an unrivalled team of tennis experts including TODD WOODBRIDGE, JOHN NEWCOMBE, JOHN FITZGERALD, ROGER RASHEED, SAM SMITH, RENNAE STUBBS, ALICIA MOLIK, NICOLE BRADTKE and HENRI LECONTE – as well as a Seven‟s accomplished team of TV hosts, commentators and reporters who will help to bring the Australian Open series alive. Full broadcast and commentary details are attached.

Mahut begins his busy day at 11 am against countryman Paul Henri-Mathieu. The Frenchmen were born nine days apart in 1982 and live in Boulogne-Billancourt. But despite their proximity in age and residence, Mahut and Mathieu have only met twice on the ATP World Tour. The older Mathieu leads 2-0 in their FedEx ATP Head 2 Head rivalry. Mahut is enjoying a milestone week in ’s-Hertogenbosch. The two-time champion began his title defense with a win over qualifier Lukas Lacko on Monday, the same day that he became the second World No. 1 from France in doubles or singles. Mahut joined Hall-of-Famer Yannick Noah, who spent 19 weeks atop the Emirates ATP Doubles Rankings during the 1986 and 1987 seasons. Because his regular partner Pierre-Hugues Herbert is playing singles in Stuttgart this week, Mahut is teaming with World No. 10 Rohan Bopanna for the first time. They make their debut Wednesday in the third match on Court 1.
