Brandel Chamblee is taking one of NBC’s analyst chairs for next month’s U.S. Open.
The network had been rotating commentators through its main booth all season and plans had been unclear as to who would take the chairs for NBC’s biggest golf broadcast, but a release Monday morning announced the lineup.
Dan Hicks and Chamblee will work together, as will Mike Tirico and Brad Faxon, and the leading pairs will alternate holes in NBC’s main broadcast windows.
“This year we began utilizing an odd/even system of hole assignments for our commentator pairings,” said Sam Flood, executive producer and president, production, NBC Sports.
