This will be Jim’s 13th straight Australian Open with Seven.
Why is this idiot still being inflicted on viewers? Seven still have no idea after their failed olympics coverage with that moron at the helm.
Failed Olympics coverage?
Seven achieved huge ratings shares & it helped them to a clear win for 2016 
If not for the Olympics. Nine would be “Still the One” once again.
No.
Seven were still well in front YTD excluding the Olympics.
It’s just the Olympics really cememted it.
Quality of coverage not ratings figures. It was woeful coverage. Cheap and nasty.
Even Jo Palmer is better than Mel.
According to TV Tonight, here is the schedule:
I love how 7QLD were running ads about the Australian Open being in HD, when in fact they’re only going to be showing it in HD here for a maximum of 1 hour per day

Seven Sport’s Jason Richardson hosting the review show & Jason Bennett is reporting.

Seven Sport’s control room in Melbourne Park 
Todd Woodbridge hosting coverage from 11am.
Jim Wilson use to host the morning coverage.
Another edition of around the courts. All 7Tennis streams are using Australian Open graphics:
And on the “channels of Seven”:
Tennis Australia graphics are so much better. Seven’s graphics are so tired and plain.
And before Jim Wilson it was Mark Beretta.

Who was that young female reporter interviewing the asian player just then?
Forgive me, but it looked like Georgia Love 
It’s amazing how long he’s been doing this. He’ll be the tennis equivalent of Richie Benaud.
Jim Wilson hosting coverage from 1pm.
Personally I prefer Seven’s (but of course it’s a matter of personal preference/taste).
