“Stop sending laminated scorecards out that show 63 at Oakmont…”

Miller apologizes for ‘pool boy’ comments

I guess I was still thinking about Dan Hicks’ Camillo Villegas ‘painter’s outfit’ comment when I missed Johnny Miller saying that Rocco Mediate looked like he cleaned Tiger’s pool (via Awful Announcing). Miller issued an apology through NBC Sports, saying:…

Ratings up for Open

NBC and USGA officials must have been pretty pleased when they saw the overnight ratings of yesterday’s final round. Sunday’s coverage earned the best overnight rating in six years, at 8.5/18. Most impressive was the audience from 8:30-9:00 EST, which…

To end this series, we decided to profile Gary Koch, the man who never gets enough attention on NBC (scratch that, Bob Murphy is that person). Even though his career stats don’t match up to those of colleagues Johnny Miller…

Profile: Rolfing is the iron man of golf announcing

It’s hard to believe that Mark Rolfing started working full-time as a commentator in 1986. He started out with ESPN, moved to NBC, then ABC, and returned to NBC in 1998. He has been there ever since, and contributes to…

Dan Hicks was a part of NBC’s first U.S. Open team in 1995 at Shinnecock, and has been a staple ever since. Hicks is a pretty good golfer himself, a 9.1 index, and supposedly brings his clubs to each golf…

Jimmy Roberts–stop asking questions

If NBC knows what’s good for the game of golf, Jimmy Roberts must do a better job with his post-round interviews. Yesterday was another example of poor etiquette, a lack of golf knowledge, and bad journalistic ethics. The first interview…
