Cord-cutters can live stream the channel via a live TV streaming service like Sling TV, DirecTV Stream, or Fubo.
Sling TV is one of the more affordable live TV services out there, with base subscriptions starting at $40 per month. You'll need to opt for the Sports Extra add-on to access the Tennis Channel. This costs an additional $11 per month, bringing your monthly total up to $51, but Sling is currently running a promo that will knock $20 off your first month of service.
For just the essentials without any extra fluff, Sling TV is the streaming service you're looking for. It's more customizable than other plans, with three options you can choose from, so you pay for only what you need. New members often get a chunky discount on their first month.
DirecTV Stream and Fubo are two other solid ways to access the Tennis channel. They're a bit more expensive, but they include more than double (or triple) the number of live channels Sling has. For DirecTV Stream, the cheapest way to access the Tennis Channel is through the Entertainment + Sports Pack plan, which costs a combined total of $101.98 per month. Fortunately, DirecTV Stream will currently give you $15 per month off your first two months of service. Plus, the streaming service comes with a five-day free trial.
Fubo offers access to the Tennis Channel through its Elite with Sports Plus plan, which costs $99.99 per month. First-time customers can try it out free for seven days and, should they decide to keep their subscription, get $20 off their first month of service.
Fubo's base plan offers tons of classic channels, including local networks and traditional cable options, but the Elite with Sports Plus tier unlocks extra sports-friendly options.
The Tennis Channel is also the home of the Davis Cup in the UK. Subscriptions are fairly cheap, with plans starting at just £2.49 per month directly through the Tennis Channel website. New subscribers can kick off their subscription with a one-week free trial.
Where to watch the Davis Cup in AustraliaThe Davis Cup is available to watch through beIN in Australia, where subscriptions start at AU$14.99 per month after a one-week free trial. Select matches, including upcoming Australia vs. USA quarterfinal coverage, will be available to live stream for free through 9Now, which only requires account creation to use.
How to watch the Davis Cup from anywhereThe Davis Cup is shaping up to be a can't-miss tournament. Fortunately, you don't need to worry about losing access to your usual viewing methods just because you're traveling abroad. You can keep up with all of your go-to websites and subscriptions just like you would back home with the help of a VPN (virtual private network), which enables you to change your device's virtual location. Most of the services we've highlighted today require country-specific payment methods, so this option will work best for those just traveling abroad and hoping to access their existing subscriptions.
