Perhaps because there are multiple games back to back (or close to it)?
Still waiting.
That’s the trouble with the world feed and no pre-show.
Maybe in hindsight we should’ve had Cam and Ben doing a bit of continuity.
The implementation of the world feed has been very shoddy this year.
Certainly think they should do a Premier League Productions style studio show for the playoffs at least which broadcasters could use.

LIV GOLF AND SEVEN NETWORK ANNOUNCE MULTI-YEAR BROADCAST EXTENSION
All LIV Golf events, including LIV Golf Adelaide will continue to screen in Australia live and free on the Seven Network through multi-year broadcast extension
The world’s first global team golf league featuring many of the sport’s biggest stars will return live and free to the Seven Network in 2025 and beyond, as the Network today announced it is retaining the broadcast rights for every round of the LIV Golf League.
Fans can follow all the exciting action and rivalries of the upcoming season on 7plus, beginning with LIV Golf Riyadh 6 - 8 February and then LIV Golf Adelaide from 14 - 16 February as the tournament visits The Grange Golf Club once again.
LIV Golf Adelaide 2024 saw a groundbreaking tournament unfold on the Seven Network with the league’s first-ever team playoff between the all-Australian Ripper GC and the all-South African Stinger GC. More than 2.7 million viewers tuned in to Seven and 7plus across the three days to watch the action as the home team reigned supreme for a sensational win on championship Sunday.
Seven Network Director of Sport, Chris Jones said: “The LIV Golf broadcast is absolutely world-class, and we cannot wait to embark on another huge year of action on Seven and 7plus.
“LIV Golf continues to innovate both on and off the course, and we’ve loved working together with the LIV team to take viewers behind the stories of the tournament’s biggest names and see the personalities behind the sport’s most exciting players.
“At Seven, we’re genuinely excited to continue our partnership with LIV, not only for the Adelaide event that has become a landmark on the Australian sporting calendar, but for all LIV Golf events which will continue to be broadcast live and free on Seven and 7plus Sport.”
Seven Network Commercial Director – Sport, Renee Quirk said: “On behalf of the Seven Network, we are thrilled to announce an extension to our valued partnership with LIV Golf.
“At Seven, we’re proud to have been with LIV Golf from the very beginning in Australia. It’s a competition that has undeniably put golf back on the map, showcasing the biggest names in the sport in a way that captivates audiences both on screen and on the ground. Together with LIV, we have seen strong audience results on 7plus Sport, not just for the Adelaide event, but worldwide, and we’re thrilled to continue working with them to bring this incredible experience to fans in Australia."
Seven Network’s broadcast in 2025 will bring all the drama, celebrations and incredible competition to Australian fans as the sport continues to draw in new audiences and modernise golf through a team lens.
Entering its third official full league season in February, the LIV Golf League features an exciting blend of individual and team competition that has supercharged the sport, redefined how golf is experienced and captivated fans worldwide. For all LIV Golf League events, fans can watch the star-studded field featuring 14 major champions with a combined 28 major wins, including 2024 LIV Golf Individual Champion, Jon Rahm (Legion XIII), Bryson DeChambeau (Crushers GC), Brooks Koepka (Smash GC), Phil Mickelson (HyFlyers GC), Dustin Johnson (4Aces GC), Sergio Garcia (Fireballs GC), and more, with Australian golfing icons Cameron Smith, Marc Leishman, Matt Jones and Lucas Herbert of Ripper GC heading into the season as the reigning team champions.
LIV Golf Senior Vice President of Broadcast Partnerships and Programming, Ron Wechsler, said: “It’s great that Australian fans will be able to get close to the LIV Golf action across the globe from the comfort of their homes for all events thanks to the Seven Network. Through 7Plus, fans will be able to feel the LIV Golf energy and excitement as the League takes on exciting new destinations, new players, and new heights in 2025 and beyond.”

According to Gold Coast Turf Club website, the first race for this Friday’s Magic Millions meeting is at 5.30pm QLD time (6.30pm AEDT) and the last race is scheduled for 8.55pm QLD time (9.55pm AEDT).
However, Seven’s coverage is yet to appear in the online guides.
apparently it is going to work with the BBL coverage. I am keen to see how that woild work. Stop the over for the race then keep playing
But how will it work with international broadcasters which shows the BBL on Friday? Seven will provide the world feed for the match.
Surely the races will be on 7two and there will just be on-screen channel change alerts on the main channel?
They will make it work. It happens over seas a lot. You see stuff like this on Fox sports all the time.
Revised schedule:
07:00 PM Big Bash League
A look at tonight’s match between the Sixers and the Thunder. Featuring Magic Millions.
07:15 PM Big Bash League Sydney Sixers vs Sydney Thunder
10:30 PM Big Bash League Post Game
Surely they will follow Nine’s example, seamlessly switching between racing commitments and the BBL team, keeping viewers updated on the cricket action that occurred while they were covering the races.
Does Cricket Australia’s contract permit Seven to transfer their world-feed obligations to Foxtel for this game, or do international broadcasters independently choose the best feed available to them?
Just found out that heavy rain is forecast for Sydney tomorrow night, meaning the BBL game between Sixers and Thunder will be affected (or even washed out). Which will allow 7mate more time to cover the Magic Millions during the rain interruptions.
Minor change: main channel coverage in Sydney and Melbourne now starts at 12:05PM.
Is this on 7Two or 7Mate - can’t tell via the 7+ w/m
7Mate - sometimes you can tell from the image titles in this case 7mateHD_Gold_Coast
