Australian Open streams at online bookmakers

Several of Australia’s best online bookmakers offer live streaming of local and international sporting events. Live tennis is a core feature of most such services, with matches on the ATP and WTA tours available all year round.

Does that include major tournaments such as the Australian Open? Unfortunately, licensing restrictions prevent most Aussie-based betting operators from hosting live streams of the grand slams. If we learn of any reputable bookies that are streaming the AO, we will let you know.

This is not necessarily the case outside Australia. Looser regulations in Asia, Africa and parts of Europe give bookmakers much more wiggle room when it comes to streaming rights. Just remember to make sure the bookie is licensed and secure, as most operators will not grant access to their live streaming services unless you have put cash in your account and/or made a wager within the past 24 hours.

Alternative live streaming sites

There are literally thousands of websites that offer free live streaming of tennis matches and other sporting events. These can be especially handy for overseas viewers who cannot access AU-facing services such as 7TENNIS and bookmaker streams.

This approach is littered with pitfalls, however. It can take hours of trial and error before you find a stream that delivers what it promises. Furthermore, free live streaming sites are often riddled with pop-up ads, noisy banners and unwanted redirects. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

Using a VPN to live stream Australian Open

If you are watching from abroad and you don’t want to rely on free Australian Open streaming sites, you might consider using a virtual private network (VPN). This allows you to anchor your WiFi connection to an Australian IP address and access content that might otherwise be restricted in your region. For more information, see our dedicated page on live streaming sports with a VPN.
