A very typical (and not unexpected) poor implementation from Sky with the tennis. As a Sky+HD owner (for over 15 years), we're once again shafted by not even being offered a red button service for extra courts, although I imagine that even if we were, it would only be SD.
So, unless I want to watch the match that is on the main channel, or more annoyingly, if they cut away from a match they were showing to broadcast a different one, my only option is to watch on an app on my phone. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I'd prefer to watch television on an actual television, ie: on my 49inch screen rather than a measly 6 inch one.
Sky don't even provide options on their app! At least with other providers, I can cast the content from my phone to the TV, but Sky just say "no" to that. Even the app itself is poor. On the tennis options, the stupid little white bar stays on the bottom of the screen and never disappears (Apple iPhone), plus, all of the streams within the Sky Sports App are bizarrely half the frame rate of that in the sky go app (which also doesn't allow casting). You can clearly see in particular on tennis streams that the stream is 25fps rather than 50fps, even on a tiny screen.
As far as I know (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong), Sky don't offer the option to stream the extra courts via their website on a PC, nor are there any apps that you can install onto something that does work on a TV screen (ie: AppleTV, FireStick, Roku etc etc).
So disappointing.
