On the page that has the yellow square with BBC sport on it. Or on your computer (if you don't need it for anything else).

No, sadly not on the red button. If your TV is connected to the internet, then you may be able to get the tennis on your tv via the iPlayer. Mine isn't though, so have to make do with BBC website.

It's been topsy turvy.
Tennis is lovely without commentry. The BBC really shouldn't spend our money on so many commentators. |

It's not through iplayer it's the BBC sport page. Same page that you can get online.
Does that mean you can't watch any moving images on your laptop? What's the point of that?! |

Tara Moore lost her ITF final to a qualifier, winning only 4 games.
The circuit moves on to Landisville, Pennsylvania. Moore, Robson & Christie are in the main draw. Whybourn, Boulter & Webley-Smith, in qualifying. Over in Gatineau, Canada, Katy Dunne and Samantha Murray are in the main draw, as are Brydan Klein and Edward Corrie. Amanda Carreras is playing an ITF event in Belgium. Dan Evans (top-seeded), Liam Broady and Lloyd Glasspool, are playing an ATP Challenger in Aptos, California with Cameron Norrie in the qualifying. Must admit I'd not heard of Norrie, a South African born, former New Zealand junior who plays for Texas Christian University. His dad is Scottish, though so the LTA nabbed him. |

Never made a complaint before but i'm seriously considering making a complaint about BBC showing nonsense on the main channels, whilst hiding Tennis and Football on I Player channels (infact they are not even showing tennis at all by the looks of it). I mean how out of touch can you get? This is almost Sky Sports News levels of getting your priorities wrong.
To think these incompetent buffoons are trying to check up on people having a TV license to watch I player as well. Lmao. |

Didn't Eurosport also used to show the Olympics in years gone by? Or am I imagining it?

You're missing the point about the Olympics. The sports they are showing are ones that are rarely covered outside of the Olympics. If they put on tennis and football there would be an outcry from sports for whom the Olympics is their ultimate achievement and probably rightly so. Sure I have absolutely no intention of watching fencing or judo (or even boxing, cycling and swimming which are on throughout the year) but I understand why they haven't got Serena and Kerber on BBC1 weeks after Wimbledon.
Plus these days most people have online access (with the exception of those who decided to buy a laptop for branding over functionality naming no names...). I don't know but Eurosport must have quite a limited audience as I have tried everything I can think of to get it (on my TV) and it is impossible. |

I was just going to say he's had a haircut but I thought it was too frivolous.
![]() He looks really different without the big curly mop. A lot younger.
