    "World"Sport no Tour de France?, no Wimbledon?

    I find it odd the something called "WorldSport" wouldn't be covering the Tour de France. I would have thought that something called "WorldSport" would be covering some of the Major world sporting events, I also don't understand why it didn't cover Wimbledon. I think many viewers would have...
