Fox Sports is the brand name for a number of sports channels, broadcast divisions, programming, and other media around the world.

The Fox Sports name has since been used for other sports media assets. These assets are held mainly by Fox Corporation, with the exceptions of the operations in Australia (which are part of Foxtel, majority-owned by Fox Corp. sister company News Corp Australia), Mexico (owned by Grupo Multimedia Lauman), Argentina (owned by Mediapro but branding and contents are licensed to Fox Corporation[1]), and the rest of Fox Sports International that was sold to the Walt Disney Company in Latin America, except Mexico and Argentina.[2][3][4]
