Brian Anderson has continued to see his star rise at TNT Sports. And after signing a new deal with the network, he’ll add the French Open to his duties.
TNT Sports announced it had inked a multi-year extension with Anderson to keep him with the network through his 20-year anniversary with the Warner Bros. Discovery property.
“TNT Sports is family to me. I’ve called games for TNT Sports since 2008, and I have no desire to work for anyone else. I’m thrilled to sign this extension and continue for many more years,” said Anderson. “The network’s desire to continue to grow the portfolio of championship sporting events perfectly aligns with my desire to call prominent games and matches over a wide variety of sports. I grew up playing every sport I cover and am grateful TNT Sports has given me the opportunity to live out my dream behind the microphone for such amazing events.”
As TNT Sports adds the French Open to its growing list of events, Anderson will be a “key member” of the coverage, the network says.
“Brian’s professionalism and dedication to his craft are evident through his incredible contributions to sports broadcasting over the last 25-plus years,” said TNT Sports Chief Content Officer Craig Barry. “Even more impressive is his selflessness and commitment to elevate everyone around him – both on air and off. Simply stated, Brian is one of the best in the business! We’re proud to have him as a member of the TNT Sports family and look forward to his voice being prominently featured across a wide array of sports properties well into the future.”
In addition to calling the French Open for TNT Sports, Brian Anderson also serves as play-by-play broadcaster for the network’s coverage of the NBA, MLB, NCAA Division Men’s Basketball Tournament, and its golf series The Match.
