The August FOX Sports Watch List

Our favourite athletes may be performing without a crowd, but we can still keep our eyes on them from the comfort and safety of our homes.

As live sports roars back into action, and postponed matches and delayed races now sprint toward the finish line, we’re making sure you don’t miss out on any of the action this August.
