In the UK, the broadcasting rights for tennis are moving from Amazon prime/discovery+ to sky-sports. The price is increasing from ~£6 a month to ~£35 p/m. I know there’s plenty of live streaming sites available to watch live matches, but when the tournaments are in the US or Australia the time difference doesn’t work. Are there any sites that allow you to watch tennis matches on demand?

        I just checked and the basic plan has 19K VODs. Maybe report back if you like it?

          I will. If it does work it’ll make a lot of British tennis fans happy!

            Have you found an answer if it plays sports on demand? Thinking of signing up for this to watch the premier league matches in the US.

                That’s how I read it too. But I’ll update if I hear back from them.

              No, but I have emailed them to ask. I’ll let you know if I get an answer/try it to see.

                  Hey! I had no luck finding sports replays on demand from an IPTV. But I did find a work around for this event - ESPN via YouTubeTV. It’s an American service so you need a VPN and US zip code - 11108 worked for me. It has a 21 day free trial and has all the EPSN channels (except plus) live and on demand. It wouldn’t let me sign up with my UK based PayPal, but it happily accepted my UK debit card with the American zip code.
