How Can I Watch Denmark Open 2019 for Free?
If you live in a country that doesn't have broadcasting rights bought by any network, you are lucky - you can watch on the BWF YouTube Channel called BadmintonWorld.TV.
So, if you live in a country that didn't bother getting television rights for the Denmark Open, you get to watch it for free. In fact, even if you live elsewhere, we have some tips for you - you can still watch the whole thing. All you need to make things work is a VPN.
You see, VPNs can help change your IP address, which will, in turn, fool YouTube into thinking you're not in the US, for instance. On TechNadu we can only recommend the very best to you, which is ExpressVPN - a tool that comes with thousands of servers across the world and some really great privacy and security features.
Here's what you need to do to watch the Denmark Open for free:
- First, you have to go ahead and subscribe to ExpressVPN (49% OFF) by visiting their website. The whole process only takes a few minutes and you'll have to pay for the service upfront. On the other hand, they have a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can ask for a refund if you don't enjoy the service.
- Next, you have to download the app and install it on your device. You can then launch the tool and log into your account.
- It's now time to connect to a server that's located in a country that doesn't have broadcasting rights to the Denmark Open. We suggest you go to the UK. There are a bunch of UK servers so just pick one and connect to it.
- The process takes a few seconds and you should then go ahead and visit the BWF YouTube channel. We suggest you do that in an incognito window, although there aren't usually any issues in watching content from other countries on YouTube, even if you're logged into your account.
- Tune in at the right time and start watching the games!
(Note: If you live in the US and are traveling during the event, you can use the same steps and connect to a US server to watch the games on the Olympic Channel website. Otherwise, just go with the local YouTube feed and see whether or not the games are available.)
