IBM and the United States Tennis Association announced on October 28, 2026, that IBM will remain the US Open's Official AI and Cloud Partner through 2031. The five-year renewal, described in the IBM newsroom, follows record engagement for IBM-powered digital platforms.

The renewed agreement keeps IBM at the center of the US Open's digital experience for another five years. The 2026 tournament introduced Live Updates, Key Moments and Serve Quality, combining hybrid cloud and artificial intelligence to present match information to fans.
Strategic reach, undisclosed economics
The IBM newsroom said the US Open's platforms generated more than 270 million total engagements across USOpen.org and the US Open app during the 2026 tournament. The USTA also reported more than 1.2 million attendees across the three tournament weeks and more than 3.9 billion interactions and video views on its owned social channels, up 26 percent from 2025.
The announcement did not disclose contract terms or a direct revenue target. For investors, the renewal therefore strengthens IBM's technology showcase and customer visibility, while its financial contribution remains tied to broader enterprise demand and future product adoption.
