Sorry for the inconvenience…Tuesday’s showing of “Origins of Tennis” was pre-empted by a replay of the 2009 US Men’s Open Final – imagine that! At any rate, this is the latest information we have. I would advise all interested viewers to check the schedule to avoid any disappointments! As for those of you that do not get the Tennis Channel, we are looking into getting copies of the show. We will keep you posted.
