Default Wimbledon stays on the Beeb until 2017

WIMBLEDON will stay on the BBC after the corporation's contract was extended until 2017.
The Championships have only ever been shown on the Beeb but their exclusive rights were thought to be under threat.

But despite reported interest from Sky Sports, the BBC have had their contract as host broadcaster and UK rights holder extended by three years.

Ian Ritchie, chief executive of the All England Club, said: "Wimbledon fans have been enjoying the BBC's broadcast coverage of The Championships since 1927 and we are delighted to be extending this enduring and successful partnership for a further three years."

Barbara Slater, director of BBC Sport, added: "We know that Wimbledon fortnight has a very special place in the hearts of the UK public.

"We are delighted that our new agreement ensures coverage of The Championships remains free to air and available to licence fee payers."
this is good news
