NBC Shows a Tape Delayed Match at the French Open

If you watched or are watching NBC’s coverage of the French Open, you may have noticed it’s not the Roger Federer-Juan Martin Del Potro match that is currently underway. It’s a good match and is currently in the 4th set.

Newsday’s Neil Best noticed this as well. Why NBC did not choose the Federer match is beyond me, but then again, a lot of NBC does with its tape delayed action is beyond my comprehension. Expect more of this during Wimbledon later in the summer.

I’m watching Fox Sports Australia’s coverage through a backdoor site. You can try to find it either through Justin or Ustream. I won’t give links but you can find them through Google if you wish.
