US tennis open on nowtv.

Can I  get tennis on demand on Nowtv with the sports subscription now that Sky have the concession? I haven't been able to get any sports on demand on Nowtv previously.

Hi @CharlieBee 

If you have a NOW Day or full Monthly Sports Membership you should be able to watch on Demand Sports content where available.

Should you be using a Mobile Sports Membership then you won't be able to watch Sports on Demand.

My guess that the US Open Tennis will be available on NOW Sports on Demand, but might be worth waiting until the US Open Tennis starts on Sky from 28th of August to see if the matches gets added to NOW Sports on Demand.

We won't know as the on demand rights vary for every sport regardless of it being shown live. Your best to email sky viewer relations to find out.

Hi @CharlieBee There will be straight repeats of each match after midnight til 5AM. There will also be 30 Miniute hightlights to view On Demand in addition to 3 Games from that specific day. Hope this helps, if even a little. Thank you - TD

Thanks for info. Not sure who would want to watch between 12 and 5 am. This
is why I wish to have access to catchup games at any time a la Prime video
who provide a great service.

On Amazon prime you can view the whole match at a time to suit you. Watching between midnight and 5am isn’t very helpful for the vast majority of people. Also 30 ‘highlights’ are not a good solution for people who are paying to watch whole matches

Couldn't agree more. BBC coverage of Wimbledon leaves a lot to be desired
also.

Hi Tony-D, 

Do you even realize how disrespectful to all the viewers it is what you say. 

To watch replays from midnight till 5m same day? The worst sort of joke your NOWTV platform could have come up with. No comparison to Amazon Prime Video. You shouldn't even be allowed to stream the content if all you care is the money and nothing else. If you were a tennis fan I would like to see you waiting until midnight to watch the matches and most probably it will not be all of them judging by the performance of NOWTV so far. Amateurish and very very disappointing service. If you try to aspire and be like all the other much better platform at lease put some effort.

Hi @Tony-D 

Can you get the relevant NOW Team to make a dedicated Tennis on Demand folder and not dump the on Demand Sports content into the on Demand channels such has Sky Sports Action, Sky Sports Arena, Sky Sports Mix, like you did for the Netball World Cup, where you had to go hunting to find the Netball on Demand matches.

Where a dedicated on Demand Sports category would be much easier to find, like you do for Rugby Union, Football etc.
