I would put him up there as one of the greatest sports commentators of all time.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There was a piece on him at the weekend which said something like “he perfectly captured the tension and excitement like no other could”
Then it showed a little ball roll along the grass and fall down a hole with him saying “what a lovely shot that is” in a rather low monotone voice

A very calming, friendly voice.

brilliant on the bbc. stopped watching golf coverage on there when he retired from commentary
He hadn't retired Phenom. Was due to retire after next year's Open.
Thought he suddenly sounded a lot older at the Masters recently.
As others have said, one of the greats.
