BBC Coverage Of The Masters??

[Chrisb83]

Does anyone know if the BBC has the Saturday & Sunday coverage of the masters?

Cancelled Sky Sports just couldn't justify it and now starting to panic that i'm going to have to use a friends skygo account and watch it on a tablet which just isn't the same.

If you've got an XBOX then you can use their skygo account on that which is just the same

And they'll all be pronouncing "Masters" with a flat "a", as in flat when it should be like "plasters" as pronounced by someone posh. It annoys the hell out of me, I hate Americanisms.

I'm with you, normally cancel over winter and take it back for the masters, but then theres a bit of a wait for the next decent events so will watch it on advert free BBC2 HD :whoo:

I'm with you on the SkyGo side it's just not the same as watching it in HD on a decent TV.

Probably not what you want to hear but I got a friends and family deal a month ago as it was Sky's 25th birthday. I got the whole package: entertainment, movies, sports, HD & 3D as I have a 3D tv for £25 per month and it lasts 25 months.

As others have said BBC will have plenty of coverage especially over the weekend.

Adverts don't bother me at all. In fact, they can be useful 'natural breaks'. .

+1.

Lack of smiley must mean there's irony going on for English pronunciation of an American tournament...

Thats what the pause button is for:smirk:

For those watching it on a tablet , have you tried connecting it to a lightening digital av adapter? This allows you to watch whats on the device screen on your tv

Correct. Hence I watch it on Sky.

Just for info.... Skygo doesn't support HDMI...... I tried it from my phone!!

 

[G1BB0]

just got a 25% discount on my sky for 12 months, was gonna cancel altogether but full package, hd, phone and unlimited bband for 60 a month is ok by me, my lads are footing the bill anyway

I may watch the beeb coverage tho as I actually like Ken and Peter oo:

 

[matts1984]

Im going to do the same as last year and have sky sports added to my package for the 4 days. Shame its sky sport 4 this year rather than sky sport 1. Going to cost me more......They know what they are doing!

 

[Deleted member 15344]

Will always watch the golf on BBC - far superior than Sky

Ken on the course is superb , Wayne and Peter in the box with Hazel presenting - great all round

 

[Delh1982]

Ive read it may be possible to do it via a laptop
