With so many sports events happening right now in Paris, it can be hard to track down the specific ones you want. That's why we've put together everything you need to know about where to watch free Olympics tennis live streams. Wherever you are in the world, we can help you tune in. 

Rafa Nadal is the payer on everyone's minds this year, as this might end up being the last event for the iconic player. He's currently planning on playing in the singles tournament on Sunday and is also pairing up with one Carlos Alcaraz first in the doubles. If that's not enough for you, you don't like tennis.

Andy Murray has confirmed this will be his final tournament, and he recently pulled out of the singles to concentrate on his doubles partnership with Dan Evans. Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, Daniil Medvedev, Jasmine Paolini, Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, and Naomi Osaka are all vying for Olympic glory, too, in a star-studded schedule. Notable players not competing include Jannik Sinner, Aryna Sabalanka, Ons Jabeur, Elena Rybakina, and Emma Raducanu.

The Olympics is being streamed for free in various countries around the world. If you want a piece of the action gratis, too, we can help you bypass geo-blocks that would usually stop overseas viewers from accessing the free Olympics tennis live streams. A VPN (virtual private network) changes the digital location of your viewing device (phone, laptop, Fire TV Stick, etc) to a country of your choosing, unlocking the international options from the box below, along with a range of other international streaming options.

How to watch a free Olympics tennis live stream from anywhere 

If you're not currently in one of the countries mentioned above and are struggling to find a decent option locally, you can use a VPN to temporarily change your viewing device's location to act as if you were located elsewhere. VPNs are an essential tool for any sports fan nowadays, as shown in our vast collection of streaming guides. They're not just great for streaming, as they protect your digital privacy online on all your devices at home and, more importantly, on vulnerable public WiFi.

If you fancy taking one for a spin, I recommend ExpressVPN. It's an efficient, user-friendly option that I've been using for years, and it has a 30-day money-back guarantee policy. You can find full details in our ExpressVPN review.

How to watch Olympics tennis in the USA

The best, and by far the cheapest, option to watch Olympic tennis in the USA is Peacock. The streaming service is covering the entire Olympics and you can enjoy it all for just $7.99. This is for a rolling one-month plan that you're under no obligation to keep once the Olympics end on August 11. With a strong selection of on-demand content to watch, you might end up keeping it for a while longer, though.

We'd only stump up for the ad-free $13.99 tier if you're going to dive into the on-demand content, as ads still show on live sports coverage. So you're not missing out on any additional coverage or panelist discussion if you get the cheapest option - we've tested both this week to make sure. 

Some Olympic coverage will also be broadcast on TV via NBC and the USA Network, but only for select events. If you don't mind missing some of the action and want a more comprehensive cable alternative, you can try a live TV package like Sling or Fubo.

Sling is $40 a month (but the first month is reduced to $15 at the moment) and offers NBC (in select regions) and USA Network (in all regions) through its Sling Blue subscription. Fubo is $79.99 a month and offers comprehensive NBC and USA Network coverage. It's pricey, but you can also enjoy a one-week free trial.

Where to watch Olympics tennis in the UK

The UK's BBC will show select Olympics tennis events for free via the BBC iPlayer. This option covers a great deal of the major Olympic events, making it one of the best free options around the world. Better yet, it has zero ads. Just create a free account, and you're all set. If you're not in the UK right now and looking for a VPN-compatible option, the UK is a great pick.

For more comprehensive tennis coverage, if you find a specific match isn't being covered by the BBC, you'll be able to see it on Eurosport, which is only £3.99 a month during the Olympics.

Where to watch Olympics tennis in Australia

Vast amounts of Olympic coverage will be available to live stream on 9Now in Australia, a free option you can access after creating a free account. Select tennis matches will be included in this coverage. To watch absolutely every part of the Olympics and every round of tennis in Australia, fans can subscribe to Stan Sport for $27 a month ($12 for Stan's base subscription and $15 for the necessary Sport Add-on).
