Keep calling DirecTV back (a couple of times a day if necessary) and asking them if there have been any cancellations or if any earlier times have opened up.
Don't know about any online viewing. Sorry.

Holy crap! Something I said actually helped someone?!?!?
Will miracles never cease?!?
(Congrats Adam. Here's hoping your favorite(s) make it to the second round so you don't miss them.)

If it is on the Golf Channel (which I believe it is) try Veetle.com I have watched the last few tourneys on it at wrok with no problems.

Interesting. I read the About and FAQ for Veetle, but I'm still a little confused about what it is.
Is it like a software version of Slingbox? If anyone can access feeds, how do they get around copyright issues (or whatever the legal issues) for broadcasting channels like The Golf Channel?

pgatour.com is supposed to have a 100% dedicated feed of Tiger.
So ... as long as you want to watch nothing but all Tiger, all the time, you're all set.

Glad I could help everyone with the Veetle.com tip. As far as trouble shooting I am the wrong person to ask.

It's under like Pga Championship video when you scroll down. It is actually the golf channel and they dont start showing the match play till 1;00 pm est. So just wait till 1 and it will be on.But, you can watch the golf channel in the mean time if you like lol.

I use Veetle all the time, it is on 24/7. I have TGC on the TV downstairs but sometimes I like to put it on the computer while I'm browsing the net.
