David Feherty

David Feherty works for CBS Sports as an on-course reporter and golf analyst. Feherty is a contributor to Golf Magazine and has his own column in the back of the magazine called Sidespin.  David is a very entertaining sports announcer and also has his own TV show called Feherty.  Feherty's job as a sports announcer is to follow a group in a tournament call their every shot.  He tells you what club, how far, what kind of lie they have, and why kind of shot they should play.  He makes watching golf very entertaining because of his quick witted jokes and his foreign punch lines.  Feherty makes the game easier to understand also because he explains what is going on and clarifies things that might be confusing to the everyday amateur.  His talk show, Feherty, is a show that every golf knows about and is a every golfers dream to be on.  The show originally debuted in June 2011 as the most-watched original series in Golf Channel history. Feherty received an Emmy nomination in 2014 for “Outstanding Sports Personality”. Feherty has gone one-on-one with celebrities across golf, sports and entertainment, including former President Bill Clinton, basketball Hall-of-Famers Bill Russell and Charles Barkley, actors Don Cheadle and Samuel L. Jackson, and golfers Tom Watson and Greg Norman and many more.  He creates a different perspective in golf with getting to sit down and talk about these players.  His personality makes it easier for golfers to talk to him about anything.  His show gives the audience an insight on previous tournament victories/play, personal issues, how they practice and train, to what is their favorite thing to do other then golf. Feherty’s success extends beyond broadcasting. He has authored six books, with several making the New York Times “Best Sellers List.”  Thanks to his sharp wit and clever jokes, he has become golf’s most irrepressible personality and a viewer favorite.
