Peter Oosterhuis, a six-time Ryder Cup participant whose voice late became synonymous with the finishing holes during CBS' coverage of the Masters, died Thursday, one day shy of his 76th birthday.
"Peter was an integral part of our golf coverage and an incredible teammate for nearly two decades," CBS Sports said in a statement. "... Peter brought a unique style and distinct perspective to our broadcasts which made him one of the most respected analysts in the sport. Our deepest condolences go out to his wife Ruth Ann and his entire family."
As a player, Oosterhuis was a force in Ryder Cup play during his six appearances and was a two-time runner-up at the Open Championship.
