How to Watch BNP Paribas Open Final: Streaming & TV Channels
The BNP Paribas Open final is being broadcast nationally on TV on the Tennis Channel, so tune in there if you have a cable or satellite TV package. If you’ve cut the cord, there are a couple of ways to stream the BNP Paribas Open online, including live TV streaming services and TC Plus (T2 also has coverage, but it’s limited). Here’s a full breakdown of your best options:
1. Stream BNP Paribas Open Final for Free on fuboTV
fuboTV carries T2 in all of its packages, and you can get Tennis Channel through its Sports Plus add-on for full Indian Wells coverage. Packages start at $79.99 a month, but you get a seven-day free trial to start and then $20 off your first month’s payment (use that trial to watch the BNP Paribas Open for free for seven days). The Sports Plus add-on costs $10.99/month.
2. Stream BNP Paribas Open Final for Free on DirecTV Stream
Another great live TV streaming service that offers Tennis Channel is DirecTV Stream (Choice package). This one also starts with a five-day free trial, meaning you can use it to stream a chunk of the tournament without paying. After the trial is over, the Choice package costs $108.99 a month.
3. Stream BNP Paribas Open Final on TC Plus
Tennis Channel’s streaming service, TC Plus, will also have livestreams of the BNP Paribas Open this year. TC Plus only offers an annual subscription at $109.99 a year and no free trial. Plus, while the above options both include more than 100 channels, TC Plus is only Tennis Channel content (and it’s not a direct simulcast of Tennis Channel). However, if you’re a serious tennis fan and you don’t mind paying the annual fee, TC Plus might be worth it.
