Three cheers for the Tennis Channel! Satellite TV provider DISH and the Tennis Channel partner to bring live coverage of tennis tournaments and right where the action is at the French Open currently in progress.

Whatever court has the best action, the Tennis channel is on the game and play happening at the time, simultaneously displaying 6 matches.

Not only is the Tennis Channel bringing it live, in digital, it is also interactive. DishHOME the satellite providers Channel 100, offers your choice of 6 different French Open tennis matches at once. You can select any window to watch a match in full screen.

 

“One of the unique qualities of professional tennis is the number of simultaneous matches at any given tournament,” said Victoria Quoss, executive vice president, programming and network strategy, Tennis Channel.

“This is especially true at Grand Slam events, which feature both men’s and women’s competitions. Because of this tennis, more so than most other televised sports and entertainment programming, is a driver of multi-signal interactive applications, keeping audiences engaged and preventing them from switching the channel. DishHOME’s interactive mosaic channel lets Tennis Channel viewers select the matches they want to watch during our coverage and, in doing so, helps us to further evolve the way U.S. audiences experience Grand Slam tennis on TV.”

DISH Network subscribers need to have an interactive TV receiver and using their remote control launch iTV.
