    Where is the 2008 Olympic Tennis Coverage????

    Where is the Olympic Tennis Coverage by the Tennis Channel?

     What is going on?  Olympic Tennis is often some of the most exciting tennis seen.  The 2004 men's singles and doubles with Gonzalez of Chili was heart stopping.  I was looking forward to more of that caliber of tennis and expected the Tennis Channel to be covering the 2008 Olympics Tennis matches but instead you are running replays of Wimbledon?  For a channel that bills itself as the Tennis Channel to NOT cover Olympic Tennis is crazy.

    What gives?

    I agree I so disappointed I didn't get to see hardly any of the Olympic Tennis. Let's all suggest that Tennis Channel replay OIympic Tennis and not all the repeats they continue to play.

    Again, the TC or any other network is not allowed to show ANY olympics tennis coverage. NBC has exclusive rights to the games and paid a boat load of money for them. Most of the tennis has been aired on the USA Network, which is part of NBC. And for not showing women's tennis. You're kidding right? They just aired the last 10 major women's events datng back to May. I just watched Stanford, Carson and Montreal this month. And following the open there are several more. Look at the schedule. Might help.

     I know! I was looking forward to it. I was looking all over on the internet for times but couldn't find them. Even on the official site I couldn't find times because it was confusing. The Tennis Channel let us down really.

    Networks did us no favors with such trash as synchronized diving.

    Tisk, tisk.  Shame on you all!  How can you still expect tennis to be shown on Tennis Channel?  You should all know better by now!

     The heck with the great upset of Blake over Federer. What about the promised showing of Federer vs. Nadal Wimbledon final???
