I have now found both the golf and tennis versions of this.
The Tennis version I found is titled "STW9 Perth Ident and Wide World of Sports Tennis Intro - 1989ish" and the Golf version is titled "GTV9 Wide World of Sports - Golf Opener '87"

@mgo26 Yep, we lost 3, drew 1 and won 1...the days of Richards, Lloyd, Richardson and Logie smashing us about, Geenidge & Haynes opening consistently and the likes of Ambrose, Marshall and Walsh banging them in short and trying to remove our heads!!!

@jfwfreo I can't claim to have ever followed golf but tennis was my life and Channel 9 had all 3 of the non-domestic Grand Slams (French, Wimbledon, US) and I never heard that intro' music for any sport other than the cricket...cheers...mjf.

Still gives me tingles from nearly quarter of a century ago!! And it wasn't all that long ago when tobacco advertising was still legal in some forms, evidenced by the big Benson & Hedges ad during this intro'...!!

Boy does this take me back. Both to my childhood watching cricket and to the last time I listened to the 12th man. :)

Was this opener used for any sports other than cricket?
I swear I have seen at one point golf and tennis versions but I cant find them on google or YouTube :(

Too true! The music is originally from the Aussie 70's TV show "Bluey" (Bargearse, from the late show).
