Note:
The paper says that Nine relayed its golf broadcast from ABC in the US, listing commentators Jim McKay, Jack Whitaker and Bob Rosburg. Isnât that strange?
Itâsâ so strange that Nine didnât have its own commentators for the broadcast, and preferred to air the entire telecast from ABC instead. Maybe any of the members of the sports team didnât want to be up so early in the morning!
Nothing strange as all about that, it most likely wouldâve been hosted by a member of the WWOS team, perhaps Ian Chappell who often hosted golf telecasts in the 80s and 90s, either on location or in the studio.
Outside of some marquee sporting events, eg. the Olympics, I donât think any Australia network wouldâve invested in sending over a commentary team.
Definitely for Wimbledon but often the Australian voices wouldnât be heard if at all in the 90s until the latter stages of the tournament other than for intros, outros and maybe in a rain delay.

I think that Nine took its golf coverage of the Masters from CBS. Is that correct?
Friends was on its second year of its amazing run on Nine, pulling around two million viewers every Monday. Every comedy which immediately followed Friends also became a de facto ratings hit.
