IBM and the United States Tennis Association announced on October 28, 2026, a five-year partnership renewal that keeps IBM as the US Open's Official AI and Cloud Partner through 2031. IBM described the agreement in its IBM Newsroom as an extension of a relationship spanning 35 years.

Digital reach supports the renewal

IBM-powered platforms generated more than 270 million combined engagements across USOpen.org and the US Open app during the 2026 tournament. The USTA also reported more than 1.2 million visitors across the three tournament weeks, while its owned and operated social channels produced more than 3.9 billion interactions, including engagements and video views, up 26 percent from 2025.

The event also reached 374 million global broadcast viewer hours. IBM and the USTA introduced Live Updates, Key Moments and Serve Quality, applying hybrid cloud, artificial intelligence and match data to the fan experience.

Commercial impact remains unpriced

The renewal strengthens IBM's visibility as a provider of hybrid cloud and AI technology, but the announcement disclosed no contract terms or financial target. For investors, the key question is whether prominent deployments such as the US Open platform lead to broader software, infrastructure and consulting demand.
