Nine Tennis Coverage

Davis Cup coverage coming up

Continues Sunday

The Ecuador v Australia tie will take place at Quito Tennis and Golf Club at Ecuador’s capital Quito, 2800 m above sea level.

The Australian team was announced earlier this month.
James Duckworth leads fresh Davis Cup side for Ecuador qualifier

On 9Go even though 9Gem is free at that time.

I think 9Gem may be required on the early Sunday and Monday mornings for any overflow coverage of Winter Olympics, while the main channel goes to Today.

Having seen a bit of Nine’s coverage over the last week.

  • Sylvia Jeffries is not a great sports host - if they are looking for a female to anchor the afternoons, Nat Yoannidis would do a much better job. James Bracey is excellent

  • Jim Courier’s post match interviews (realise they are world feed too/on court) are getting interminably long.

  • The hyping up of the Special K lads was beyond embarrassing- especially when they were playing fellow Australians.

It didn’t help that Nine promoted them on the wrong night (so had to do so again the next night), and then during play, they threw the win in sight away.

Yep - weird the early promo wasn’t rectified quickly

First look at Day 9. Nine will be happy with the night session at RLA.

Final day of reprieve before Tuesday’s sweltering quarterfinals.

Alcaraz played - and beat - Tommy Paul today.

That second match on RLA should be Frtiz v Musetti. If you are going to play predictions, at least get the matches right.

It’s been fixed now. Apologies for that.

Surely his Quarter Final will be Tuesday prime time, so Australians the next two nights as well.
