DIRECTV Lets You Cheer On Your Favorite US Open Players
2009 has been a wild year for tennis fans, with twist after twist in both the men and women’s games. Roger Federer looked lost this time last year after a defeat at the hands of Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon, but just twelve short months later, he’s back at the top of his game. Adding to the drama is Andy Roddick’s resurgence, giving Americans across the land hope that one of our own can finally take back the trophy. So how are you going to keep track of all of this hot tennis action? The best coverage is delivered by the US Open Experience from DIRECTV.
The first thing you need to know is that the US Open Experience is broadcast in 1080p high definition-you’ll see every little fuzz on the ball as it arcs upward to meet Roddick’s cannon serve. At that resolution, you won’t miss a single drop from Rafa’s headband (and we know how important that is to the ladies watching).
With the US Open Mix Channel, you can watch six live matches on a single screen, zooming into whichever game holds your attention. This is especially important in the early stages, when contests are spread across several stadiums as the initial huge batch of players is whittled down to a select few.
And to keep track of future action, just hit the red button on your remote, which will bring up future draws in both the men and women’s divisions. You’ll also be able to see who each player has taken on before.
The US Open is a great way to end the summer for tennis fans. With DIRECTV, you can be sure that you won’t miss a single volley.
