US Open tennins men's final to be played today at 4 PM ET on CBS

If the on-screen guide on my cable box is to be believed, the Open will air on WROC-TV here in Rochester at 4, bumping the debut of their new 4 PM newscast back a day.

I think in Hartford it's either gonna be on Channel 3.3 - Eyewitness News Now or Channel 3 is gonna "borrow" MY TV 59 from rival WTNH "NEWS 8" the ABC affiliate. There have been numerous times in the past where Channel 3 has "borrowed" channel 59.

I just don't think WFSB is gonna give up The Season Premiere of the Final Season of Oprah.

Channel 3 just posted on it's Facebook Page the tennis game will be airing on "Eyewitness News Now". That's would be Channel 3.3
 
According to their websites, KMOV-St. Louis, KHQA-Hannibal/Quincy, and KHOU-Houston will air the tennis match live on their main channels. KMOV will delay "Dr. Phil" and "The Young and the Restless" (which normally airs at 4 on KMOV) to late night tonight. KHQA will air "Dr. Oz" and "Oprah" at their regular times on its ABC subchannel, and "Oprah" will air again tonight at 12:35AM on the main channel. KHOU will air the season premiere of "Oprah" tonight at 8, pre-empting CBS programming for that hour.

CBS O&O WCCO-Minneapolis will air "Oprah" at 2 prior to the tennis match, pre-empting "Let's Make a Deal," and the season premiere of "Dr. Phil" will be pre-empted. "Oprah" will be repeated tonight at 12:35.
 
In Milwaukee, there seems to be some confusion about whether or not WDJT or it's sister station WMLW will carry the match. Our on screen guide shows it airing on WDJT but a promo during Y&R today is saying it'll be on WMLW.
 
Our CBS affiliate is moving the match to their duopoly station (MyNetworkTV). Can't interrupt the news on the Chiefs game day!
 
KOLR-Springfield, Mo. is airing tennis. KRCG-Jefferson City, Mo. is airing its regular syndicated line-up. Neither station operates a subchannel.

I wonder will all the CBS stations air this live?

I saw a crawl saying something about the main channel and, apparently, one of the digital channels. I didn't really read it all but I guess I'll find out tonight. I have to tape the CBS comedies and it's just simpler to do it with the digital channel.
 
Why is tennis airing today? All my online guides don't have it listed, but when I tune into WHBF-TV, I see that a tennis match is on instead of Judge Judy....
 
The match was rained out yesterday.

It's airing as I speak on KIRO here, which brings up another point. Whenever a kid show (especially those sporting the E/I wart) gets bumped around, you get these on-screen advisories - most times for "this week" and "next week". So, why on earth hasn't KIRO done the same for a suddenly-bumped "As The World Turns" - which is in its final week. At least, something steering them to CBS' website seems appropriate to me.

If you have to do this stuff for one genre, you should do it for all.

So CBS has washed its hands of the tennis match?

my guess is yes, they just mentioned the match (no ESPN2 reference) on monday night footbal.....with MNF delayed and ESPN promoting the second half of the MNF doubleheader starting on ESPN2, one wonders what ESPN does if tennis runs over past 10 ET, maybe monday night football on ESPN Classic?

If Tennis runs past 10:15pm ET, it moves over to ESPN Classic. (They are crowning the champion right now, 10:08pm ET.)

The 2nd MNF game will begin on ESPN2 and move over to ESPN once the first MNF game ends.

So weird to see the CBS Sports logo/graphics on ESPN2...
 
The Lansing,Michigan CBS Station placed the US OPEN on its Half Sister station WHTV 18

They couldn't farm out the end of the tennis match on the CBS College Sports Network?
