How to watch full match replay at USOpen?

Sradice — Tue, 29 Aug 2023 08:51:37 GMT

Hi, I've joined Sky to watch the US Open. How do I watch a full match replay of the ones I miss as they're in the middle of the night? I only have an iPad and MacBook, not a TV. I have the Sky Sports app and Sky Go on my iPad and can access the website on my MacBook. Please help as my favourite player, Jannik Sinner, is playing tonight while I'll be asleep! Thanks so much, Sarah

@Sradice

There doesn't appear to be any option to watch full replays on either Sky Go or the Sky Sports app.

@caesarome what about on the website? I'm limited as I don't have a TV..

I think the same applies although I have not looked into myself.

I think it is a very poor service if there are no full match replays. Amazon Prime manages to do it so why not Sky

Sky says it's possible to watch all of the matches on all the courts, but I can't see how this is possible either watching it Live or the Replays. I can't find any way to speak to Sky about this either. I went i to Catch Up to see if I could watch some of Day 1's replays and there are three matches available. Much more iser-friendly on Prime!

You can get video link to all 16 courts live using the app on iPad but not on TV.
From Home page click on the window that has LIVE and the US OPEN: STREAM ANY OF THE 16 COURTS LIVE.

you then get a page with options in a blue strip on right

I rang Sky and he said the only way to watch a replay is to plug your box into a tele and press record. He couldn't tell me how I was to record just one particular match. I don't have a tele so I guess I can't watch replays. I wish it was still on Prime! And Sky has the contract until 2027! 😭😭😭

I have found out how to watch replays on my TV but not on the iPad.

My virgin streaming box assigns the Sky sports channels a number from 501 onwards. If I select one of the channels showing US Open tennis it suggests watching Live or Episodes. From the Episodes selection I can find completed matches. It needs the PIN if you want to watch them.

Thanks for finding that out. It's just not as accessible as Prime or Discovery+ is it? I feel I am discriminated against because I don't have a big expensive tele ☹️

I agree that the same range of options should be available and easily accessible whether you're using a tablet or TV
