channels, SPOTV and SPOTV 2 (Channel 205 and 206).</p> <p>The channels, also available for streaming on mobile phones, will broadcast tennis' Wimbledon and US Open as well as golf's British Open, European Tour and Asian Tour among other offerings.</p> <p>StarHub subscribers can also catch other ATP and WTA tournaments, World Table Tennis and MotoGP events live on the channels, which Singtel TV customers could do from Oct 11.</p> <div class="ads clearleft"><div id="dfp-ad-imu1-wrapper" class="dfp-tag-wrapper"><div id="dfp-ad-imu1" class="dfp-tag-wrapper greywash"> <script
