  1. Still skeptical on the coverage, the Wimbledon extra was good to have but never ended up showing the final match on each of the court they were covering. Last year there were many instances when they would stop live coverage at 7am when there was many matches going and not come back till the night session started. A bit annoying for australia’s best sports network, and the fact it’s on the time of the day where it has to be recorded.

    2. Yes working well. The Tennis will be on one channel, with an accurate EPG, in HD, without ads during play and with no plugs for cooking shows by the commentators during the match. And there will be replays during the day for those at home.

    3. They do work. The laws allowed the opportunity for FTA networks to acquire the rights to the US Open. They all declined.
