Immelman to replace Faldo as lead golf analyst with CBS

-

Nick Faldo is leaving 16 years as the lead golf analyst for CBS Sports. In his place will be another former Masters champion. No, not Phil Mickelson.

CBS announced Tuesday that Trevor Immelman of South Africa, who won the 2008 Masters and will be the Internatio­nal team Presidents Cup captain this year, will step in for Faldo starting next year.

Faldo, the three-time Masters and British Open champion, came over to CBS in 2007 as the lead announcer after having previously worked at ABC. His last broadcast on CBS will be the final round of the Wyndham Championsh­ip on Aug. 7.
