ESPN and Fox scored the most 2023 Sports Emmys wins among all television and streaming services, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced Tuesday night during a ceremony in New York. 

ESPN and Fox both won nine Sports Emmys, followed closely by NBC with six wins and ESPN Plus with five awards, according to NATAS. Other distributors garnering multiple Emmy Awards include ABC, FS1, TNT, CBS, ESPN2, HBO Max, Netflix, NFL Network, Peacock, TBS, Telemundo, truTV, USA Network and YouTube.

Fox’s 2022 FIFA World Cup coverage along with NBC’s coverage of the XXIV Olympic Winter Games tied for the most individual program Emmys wins with three. Other programs garnering multiple Emmys wins include the 2022 NCAA March Madness (TBS/CBS/TNT/truTV); Fox NFL Sunday (Fox), NFL 360 (NFL Network), Outside The Lines (ESPN) and Super Bowl LVII (Fox).

Veteran sportscaster Bryant Gumbel was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award for his long, barrier-breaking career, which includes hosting the long-running, Emmy-winning HBO sports news series Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel.

ESPN and Fox Sports battled to a tie for the top spot among Sports Emmy Awards winners, the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences announced Tuesday evening during a virtual awards ceremony.

ESPN and Fox tied with seven Sports Emmy Awards, while CBS and HBO tied for third with five awards each, said NATAS.

Fox’s live coverage of Super Bowl LIV drew the most Sports Emmy Award wins with four, followed by HBO’s documentary series 24/7 with three wins.

“The global pandemic has created unparalleled challenges in bringing a ‘live’ awards show program to the sports community,” said Adam Sharp, president & CEO, NATAS in a statement. “With two hosts, seven presenters, and more than one hundred and thirty-five acceptors coming from either a studio or their homes across the country, the sheer size and demand for new and exciting ways to recognize the great talents creating sports television has been an enormous enterprise that the National Academy has happily embraced.”

ESPN’s E:60 magazine series drew 10 nominations to lead all programs, while Fox Sports’ coverage of Super Bowl LIV finished second with seven nominations. Fox’s coverage of the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup and its NFL on Fox series, along with HBO’s 24/7 documentary franchise as well as ESPN’s SC Featured show all tied for third with three nominations.
