where can I watch in Thailand
Why is it on Fox in other countries , but not in America ???
Because tennis has become a tertiary sport in USA. Used to watch Mens semifinals and the final on CBS. Now u need cable…sure do miss it but not enough to bring the box back!
Because Fox has too much money invested in the football entertainment industry.
