Sports broadcaster Sony Sports Network has announced the onboarding of Sania Mirza as the Tennis Ambassador for Sony Sports Network.

Mirza will be seen as an expert panelist on the network.

Sony Sports Network is the home to three out of the four Grand Slams, the Australian Open, Roland-Garros, US Open, along with the Davis Cup.

Sania has won six Grand Slam titles across Australian Open (2), US Open (2), Roland Garros (1) and Wimbledon (1), including three women's doubles titles and three mixed doubles titles.

Following an illustrious career, where the fans saw her serving up aces on tennis courts, Mirza will now also serve up expert insights off the court on Sony Sports Network’s ‘Extraaa Serve’. The Arjuna Award, Padma Shri, Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award and Padma Bhushan recipient will be seen on the Sony Sports Network starting with the Roland-Garros on May 28, 2023.

Sony Sports Network has launched a special campaign called Home of Tennis. The campaign showcases Mirza, Sony Sports Network, and the three Grand Slams as a match made in heaven and celebrates her journey as she dons the hat of an expert after retiring from playing tennis.

The first film talks about Mirza exclusively partnering with Sony Sports Network. The second film showcases her presenting Roland Garros, Clay that Slays, to Indian audiences. The third film will showcase Sony Sports Network as the Home to Tennis with all three Grand Slams – Australian Open, Roland Garros and US Open, presented by the Tennis Ace.

The fourth film with Mirza will be a teaser for the US Open, which is truly a Glam Slam and will launch in August.
