Strange, because according to the official US Open website
Quote:
Doubles tandem Lisa Raymond and Liezel Huber did just that to try and stay fresh for their quarterfinal match, which was canceled for the day when all day and night session matches were postponed until Wednesday
And on the BBC webpage
Quote:
Andy Murray must wait until 1600 BST on Wednesday to resume his US Open campaign after heavy rain meant the entire day nine schedule was cancelled.

Murray was due to face Donald Young in round four on Tuesday but the poor weather prevented play on any courts.

Re: sky sports red button

There was NO live tennis on VM, Sky or at the US Open yesterday. Sky was showing Andy's semi's match from 2008 where he played Rafa (this was the year he got to the final).

Re: sky sports red button

Just tried to watch red button for the tennis SS 1(although play is suspended due to rain ) and my V HD box has hung on just a moment again. I would have thought this issue should have been addressed by now. It does work after a reboot.

Re: sky sports red button

Red button has never worked for me - tried SSHD2 earlier today result was SA rugby with golf commentary and the dreaded "Please wait" message.

Another re-boot.

I don't know if it's connected but twice this week I've lost all channels with an "error 320" message.

Sounds like your box is having signal issues, call VM and get them to check.

Re: sky sports red button

Is it just me that's having problems getting the 'i menu' to work on Football First and the US Open Tennis?
