Fox Sports Starts Airing Mosconi Cup on Sunday Jan 25, 2006, 9:32 AM
American audiences will have a chance to watch Team USA’s 11-7 conquest of Team Europe in the 2005 Mosconi Cup when the Fox Sports network begins a five-week airing of Cup highlights this Sunday, Jan. 29.
Shown over five consecutive Sundays, Fox’s coverage will consist of five one-hour programs, with multiple repeats for each show, according to Mosconi Cup promoter Matchroom Sport.
