STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) — NBCUniversal networks Bravo, CNBC, MSNBC and USA will combine to televise 325½ hours of programing from the Rio Olympics this summer.

NBC said Tuesday that Bravo will air the Olympic tennis competition for the third time. The network will show 94½ hours of coverage from Aug. 6-14, with more than 12 hours of competition broadcast each of the first five days.

USA Network returns to the Olympic fold with 110½ hours of coverage after not airing any events in 2012. This is the sixth time it has telecast Olympic competition. It will broadcast women's soccer two days before the opening ceremony, then will show coverage from 9 a.
