Tennis Channel will exclusively broadcast the 2026 International Tennis Hall of Fame induction ceremony, which will honour 20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer alongside journalist and former professional player Mary Carillo. The ceremony marks a significant milestone in Federer's post-retirement career, cementing his legacy as one of the sport's greatest players, and gives Tennis Channel exclusive coverage of a major moment in tennis history.

The event will take place at the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, Rhode Island, airing live on 29 August at 6:30pm ET, with a pre-show from 6pm ET featuring Hall of Famer Martina Navratilova. Analyst Brett Haber will open proceedings, with Tom Rinaldi serving as master of ceremonies, while Brad Gilbert will host a special podcast episode beforehand. Federer, the first man to win 20 major singles titles (eight Wimbledon, six Australian Open, five US Open and one French Open), will be celebrated alongside Carillo, a broadcasting pioneer who has been a Tennis Channel commentator since 2011.
