The coverage on FSN was worse than frustrating! I set my alarm to watch late at night and it still was not on!

The coverage by FSN of the Sony Ericsson Open was really VERY FRUSTRATING!!! They should NEVER get the contract EVER! They don’t follow any schedule. Not even in the wee hours of the morning. I waited and waited and waited last Friday for the semis…. Then while i was sleeping I saw the Roddick-Davydenko game at around 2 am. I was waiting for the Nadal-Berdych game all day! No point in sharing the coverage with them ever. At least with ESPN, they follow the schedule they publish.

Why in the world do you brag about carrying tennis. Don’t!! Your coverage is horrible. You don’t show the matches as scheduled and the coverage of what you decide to show is horrible. You don’t have a clue what tennis viewers want to see. And when you do decide to show a match, you have at least 5 minutes of commercials on change-overs. Stick to baseball and Nascar. Quit bidding on tennis and let The Tennis Channel or ESPN carry the matches. Who do you think you’re pleasing by what you are showing? You pre-empt the matches to show baseball and basketball and a bunch of other ****. You may be a sports network but you sure don’t give a hoot about tennis so give it up. The Pacific Life and the Sony Ericcson are major tournaments. They certainly deserved better coverage.

I am also really disapointed that FSN is allowed to have it on their schedule and then changed the schedule to basketball. Their are a lot of other channels that would have aired it if FSN would have not had the rights to it. It is a shame that networks can do this and we can do nothing about it.

Federer/Roddick matched is NOT being shown on FSN in our area (Nashville). Many matches are not shown on FSN as described on Sony Ericsson website. Coverage of Miami and Indian Wells has been horrid, especially for those of us in the South. Coverage would cut out just as the marquee matches were about to play, but luckily we got to see such barn-stormers as Cibulkova/Kuznetsova. Quality of picture is even worse than Tennis Channel (hard to imagine). Masters series tennis needs to go back to prior coverage with ESPN2 and Tennis Channel. FSN coverage has been absolutely abysmal. We have recorded every hour that was televised, yet very little was actually tennis. Horrible, horrible coverage.

I arranged my schedule today in order to watch tennis. It is not being shown. I wish you would show the matches that were scheduled. Thank you.
