Thanks, my friend.” To really get to know Nick Faldo you’ve got to look at it in reverse. He took me under his wing, he’s been a mentor to me ever since through my playing career, starting on the European Tour and then the PGA Tour. And when I started broadcasting, he did the same.

Well old boy, perhaps we’ll have the chance to be paired together on the Gallatin River in Montana, with a fly rod instead of a golf club.” And I think it’s fair to say that you let us see as a broadcaster what’s in your heart, much more than we did with your stoic manner as a player. To really get to know Nick Faldo you’ve got to look at it in reverse. And I cannot wait to come and visit you and Lindsay at Faldo Farm. Thanks, my friend.” He took me under his wing, he’s been a mentor to me ever since through my playing career, starting on the European Tour and then the PGA Tour. And when I started broadcasting, he did the same.

The CBS Golf team bid an emotional farewell to longtime lead analyst Nick Faldo on Sunday, who is retiring after 16 years.

The camera faded to black on that image — a well-deserved feat for one of golf’s great ambassadors. “The six majors, world number one ranking, and then in 2007 you join CBS and your second act as the world’s best. “You know, folks, it’s rare for anyone to be the best in the world at one thing. “Leaving a full schedule of broadcasting will now provide me the ability to entertain other opportunities and partnerships.” I’m honored to have my name sandwiched between yours on the Claret Jug — ’90, ’91, ’92 — I look at that all the time with great pleasure,” Baker-Finch said. It’s a weekend of lasts on the PGA Tour. The last tournament of the 2022 regular season.
