    Sky Sports. However they will only be piggybacking the yank coverage, so be prepared for more ads than live golf.

    Sky Sports won't have near as many ads as the US channels. They might have to cut away to the scores on the doors a bit more, but i'd imagine they'll have their own cameras there too so sky's coverage will be infinitely better than the 'the yanks' hopefully.

    All with an unhealthy smattering of murray smarm over the top!

    RTE only had highlights last time. Dont think they'll have it this year so highlights will just be on bbc. I'd say they'll be late though as Kentucy is probably 6 hours behind meaning the final matches wont be completed till around 12am our time.

    It should be but this conversation was had back in 2006 and if I remember correctly there has been some discussions in the EU on it which have failed to protect it for the Terrestrial TV.
