As far as I know its something got to do with Betfair/Bet Angel not having the rights to show the scores for the Australian open. All other tournaments are ok.

It was me asking the very same question last year after creating a bot for the Australian open lol

Yes, Betfair doesn't pay for the feed from the Aussie open as Aussies can't bet on it. So it won't show up in Bet Angel as Betfair can't expose it via the API.

Thanks for the response EULER - I appreciate it.

So does that mean I cant run my bot for the aussie open ?

I have a VPN running from the UK

ok thanks , oh well that sucks then !

It might be helpful to have an active topic / post notification on this issue to let the other members know that this function is not available for this tournament.

Are there any other tournaments this happens ?

The Aus open is the only grand slam and major WTA/APT tournament of the year they don't have the licence for, (the Davis cup is also excluded).
This question does get asked multiple times every year so there are a number of existing threads on it, every Aus open thread usually has it asked on its first/second page including this years thread started earlier this week, there is also a sticky topic in the tennis section that covers it

Othertimes I've just found its been asked

They also won't be available on the Olympics games later this summer due to IOC rules
