Yes it does but the picture is sharper on live TV than on streaming, you can rewind much more easily to rewatch a great point or shot than you can on streaming and you are not 30 seconds behind the live action. I follow all the matches in the 1st week, and I am constantly seeing the result of the point on my phone before it is shown on ESPN+.
It is true that I will miss those tennis mix channels and watching 5 matches at once, but I should be able to watch any match I want using the ESPN app now. DirecTV and I have always had a disharmonious relationship, so it's best for me to walk away.

A clear pattern- anyone who went deep in the Olympics is physically and mentally compromised here . Swiatek, Djoko, Alcaraz,, QZ..those who didn't are doing fine- Saba, Sinner, even Pegula (who played but didn't go deep)

Yes. A tournament that was 6 weeks ago.
These players are really weak.

Navarro has an amazing ability to stay focused on her own game plan, not worry about what her opponent is doing .

Indeed. Like the fact that Iga could not beat Pegula, which you said is the standard to gauge a good player.

Let's say Pegula played her best match to defeat Iga.

Pegula moving really well..not up there with Coco but still...will help her a lot on this fast court
