On NBC at the top near the score, it says live.

But ESPN is showing the same match in the third set whereas NBC has it in the first set. You have to think that NBC doesnt want viewers to know that it is on another network about 1 hour further into the match.

My money is on Henin here, but it is a real close match

Amazingly, on the West Coast you can't see the match at all right now.
Watching it on British TV coverage.

Are you showing it in the sportsbook there on TV? I am concerned that the men's final will be delayed until Monday and then not shown live because of the Today Show. NBC doesn't dare preempt the Today Show and risk losing their 2 remaining viewers!

Doug,
I'm off today, but we get the same coverage that you and I would get at home.
Yesterday afternoon, our parent company did not have any lines on any tennis matches. So unless they did it this morning, you would not have been able to bet on it at any properties.

So you must have satellite TV at home in order to watch British TV coverage?

No, watching it on internet. Check the thread in the global forum as another poster helped me find it.

Well, I found the global forum(never even knew it existed), and I just read 4 pages of the wimbledon thread which you started, but I still haven't found the link to watch it on the internet. I feel like I've just been sent out snipe hunting. O well, maybe it won't rain anymore and I can watch the men's final live on NBC this sunday

Doug,
It's in Railbird's thread. The one titled "Can't believe my eyes" or something like that.
I'm sorry you had to read through my thread, at least you didn't find it earlier. I'm having an uncharacteristically poor Wimbledon betting-wise, to say the least.

The Wimbledon.org video feed is great as well. 4.99 a day or 24.99 for the tournament. I did purchase it twice in the first few days, didn't get the whole package because of the threat of rain delays. Let me know if you can't find the thread, Doug.

Doug,
That one won't work unless you live in England. Go one or two posts below it.

You can try the link at the top of the page. Not sure if it works for people outside of the UK.

Either that or

channelsurfing.net - should have some live video for wimbedon.
