Could anyone who has the SKy sports package please confirm whether Sky Sports channels will be broadcasting ATP Master series tennis matches live? If you happen to know how many Masters it would be mostly appreciated if you told me.
I want to buy the package mainly for tennis matches and I do not want to spend that amount of money if I am not going to get several matches besides the Grand Slams.
Thank you in advance.

I don't subscribe to Sky sports so don't know how much of the tour they cover. Anyway, I find that in the last 2 years or so I have generally been able to watch Masters series and other tournaments on some channel or other across the arc --- making Sky unnecessary.

What do you mean by other across the arc? English not my native language.
Send me an email if you do not want to share in public such info.
My email is removed admin
Thank you again.

I mean the satellite arc --- with a motorised dish moving to different satellites on which you find different channels/packages.

For example I sometimes watch Tennis on German Eurosport which is free on a satellite that we call Astra 1 at 19e, or on a channel called Abu Dhabi (or Dubai) Sport which are also free on a satellite called Hotbird at 13e.

What satellite/s is your dish pointing at?

Edited: Sorry, just saw in your profile that you have no satellite set up yet.

Ι want english speaking commentary or no commentary at all.
I have no set up. Buying a movable dish and a motorised one seems expensive. Since I want english speakin commentary, I think, Sky sports can be adequate unless it does not have many AtP Masters.

Well people here with 1,4 meter dishes get the channels from Astra 2B.
I found the frequencies from Sky Sports and Eurosport channels from the Sky digital package and I will give them to a satellite guy in my town to check if he can get them all day and trouble free...
