NBC Universal Sports & Olympics presents viewers with a lineup of prestigious sports properties.

As America’s Olympic Network, NBC will bring television’s most powerful property to hundreds of millions of viewers through 2012, including the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, the 2010 Vancouver Winter Games and the 2012 London Games.

In September 2006, NBC kicked off "NBC Sunday Night Football," the premier primetime game of the week. The unprecedented six-year NFL deal, which includes innovative flexible scheduling, continues through the 2011 season with Super Bowls in 2009 and 2012. “NBC Sunday Night Football” owns the most honored broadcast team ever: Al Michaels, whom the AP called “TV’s best play-by-play announcer,” calls “NBC Sunday Night Football" games alongside John Madden, the most honored analyst in television history with 15 Emmy Awards. Bob Costas, a 19-time Emmy Award winner, hosts NBC's "Football Night in America" studio show alongside co-host Cris Collinsworth, the most honored studio analyst in history with six Emmy Awards, and analysts Tiki Barber, a three-time Pro Bowler and also correspondent for NBC’s “Today,” and Jerome Bettis, one of the most popular players in recent NFL history. “NBC Sunday Night Football” coverage also includes sideline and feature reporter Andrea Kremer, whom the Los Angeles Times has called “the best TV interviewer in the business of covering the NFL.” Peter King, who covers the NFL for Sports Illustrated and is considered one of the country’s foremost NFL reporters, serves as a reporter for the “Football Night in America” studio show.

NBC’s associations with the USGA, PGA of America and PGA TOUR were all recently extended: the USGA and PGA of America through 2014 and PGA TOUR through 2012. Under the agreements, NBC Sports will more than double its golf coverage beginning in 2007 and broadcast premier events such as the U.S. Open, Ryder Cup, The Players Championship, The Presidents Cup and the final three season-ending PGA TOUR Championship Series events featuring The Tour Championship. Other premier NBC Sports properties include Notre Dame football, Wimbledon, the French Open, the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes.

NBC Sports and the NHL entered a revenue sharing partnership in 2004. The network presents regional regular season coverage, Stanley Cup playoff games and primetime coverage of Games 3-7 of the Stanley Cup Final.

In May 2008, NBC Sports announced a joint venture with MTV Networks Music Group to own and operate the breakthrough Dew Action Sports Tour, a five-month pro tour of action sports.

The USA Network Sports lineup includes the Masters; more than 100 hours of U.S. Open tennis coverage; and popular primetime coverage of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.
