WTF No Wimbledon in german free TV??
well, i was searching for the TV schedule for Wimbledon...
...and only on DSF it gives every evening highlights!!!
So no live tennis from Wimbledon in Germany!!

I hope Eurosport gets the Wimbledon tourny soon!! |

Re: WTF No Wimbledon in german free TV??
Yes, that's a big drawback of German free TV. I read on the Wimbledon site that they are even not allowed to offer live streaming for Germany. Hard to believe that a whole nation gets completely cut off from the outside world like this.
And then they say we live in the information age...

Re: WTF No Wimbledon in german free TV??
So this year DSF is only showing highlights?
Last year they were showing at least some live tennis...

Re: WTF No Wimbledon in german free TV??
Welcome to the club 
As far as I know, Spain, Italy and Portugal all have Wimbledon on pay TV
...and worst of all is we cannot get that Wimbledon Live thing online either because we are supposed to have TV coverage |

Re: WTF No Wimbledon in german free TV??
sad but true. premiere has a new contract which allows no other station th show live tennis
it was in the media 6 month ago
I decided to watch onlie, it's cheaper than premiere and i can choose the courts
Don't see a change there soon

Re: WTF No Wimbledon in german free TV??
Even though it means no Wimbledon on TV for me, I don't think it's a big loss... until the later stages of the tournament, they would only show Muller, Kerber Kohlschreiber, Haas or Popp or whoever who is German.
