US Open - Thank You! DirectTv!

Maybe I'll start watching tennis again....

I watched some today and I plan on watching Roddick's match tomorrow. Should be exciting.

This event was mentioned on here a few days ago.

A pre-post forum search for USOpen didn't find it

Very nice, I will have to check it out.

I am still surprised they did not do a mix channel for the olympics.

Did they recently shut this down? Is that because the 701+ are for Sunday ticket? I liked this channel for the open, but darn don't shut it down so quick

As the Matches are played they get down to so few in numbers that D* only can do the Mix for the first of the U.S. Open. They always put out the dates on how long the Mix will last. And when the last date has passed no more Mix until next year.

Essentially, when you get to the quarterfinals, there are no more men or women singles matches being played at the same time and everything moves to Arthur Ashe. So no more need for a mix channel. Although I wonder if some of the doubles and mixed doubles (& senior and junior games) aren't still happening concurrently.

I think all the main matches are now televised on CBS and USA. I been watching matches everynight in primetime.
