As it has been the tradition since 2010, Mats Wilander and Barbara Schett-Eagle will be the presenters of Eurosport. They will feature with their popular must-watch ‘Game, Schett and Mats’. They will be in charge of the studio coverage with exclusive post-match interviews, guest predictions, and expert analyzes.

The official presenting team in the cube will be led by French tennis legend Alize Lim. She will be accompanied by the seven-time Grand Slam winner Mats Wilander and six-time Grand Slam semi-finalist Tim Henman. This Eurosport cube will relate the statistics and internal strategies to the audience.

The cube will also be tracking the social media handles of the participants and reporting any and every significant update they receive. Alize Lim will also make it back on the court to talk about the statistics after the match. Tennis legends like Barbara Schett and Laura Robson will meanwhile capture the players’ perspective on court.

For the American audience, Channel 9 announced a list of seasoned presenters which includes Jim Courier, Sam Smith, Todd Woodbridge, Dylan Alcott, Casey Dellacqua, Lleyton Hewitt, Jelena Dokic, Mark Philippoussis, Alicia Molik, Peter Psaltis, and Darren Cahill. The hosts on the channel are James Bracey, Roz Kelly, and Tony Jones. Meanwhile, on 9Gem legends like Nick McArdle, Emma Lawrence and Seb Costello will follow up with the match.

To make it more interesting for the Americans, Andy Lee, Sophie Monk, and Mike Goldstein will host a special off-court rendition. The show will be a tailor-made AO version of “The Hundred”.

The significant off-court reporting will be managed by Alicia Loxley, Matthew Pavlich, and Clint Stanaway. They will work with Danika Mason and Madeline Slattery.

In an unexpected turn of events… 

John McEnroe will not be sitting in the commentators’ booth this year. McEnroe’s passionate commentary was sure a favorite for many. However, this year the Hall-of-Famer hasn’t come down to Australia with the ESPN team, as reports suggest.

Along with McEnroe, Samuel Groth, who recently won the Seat of Nepean, Mornington, in the recently concluded elections, won’t be delighting us with his insights on the game either.

Meanwhile, Boris Becker, the former world no.1 will be in charge of localized coverage. He has recently been released from prison. Becker will be joining players like Alex Corretja (for Spain), Justine Henin (for France), and Roberta Vinci (for Italy). These tennis legends will aim to provide the insightful experience for the AO 2023 audience worldwide.
