Hi smucav! Sorry to piggyback this thread, but I thought this needed to get out there.

An advisory for those who live in Southeast Asia and expect to watch the US Open on Star Sports:

I checked the ESPN-Star Sports (http://www.espnstar.com/tvtimes/tvtimes_index.jsp) website for the TV schedule, but was surprised to find out the US Open won't be broadcast by Star Sports this year, at least. What will happen will be something like what happened for the French Open: each country will have a local TV station (cable or free TV) that will air the US Open. I'm not sure if the same station that aired the French Open this year for your country will also be carrying the US Open. Please check your local cable channels for US Open TV listings.

In the Philippines' case, SportsPlus (http://www.solar-entertainment.com/PLUS/sked.html) will be carrying live coverage of the US Open beginning August 29 at 11 PM.
