Hello all from Houston, where I am now over halfway through my proton radiation treatments and can see the finish line! We are very optimistic with the results of the proton therapy and I am now looking ahead to 2016 and what promises to be one of the greatest years of my broadcast career.

Earlier this week the NBC Sports Group announced that it will begin coverage of the Open Championship in 2016, a year earlier than expected. So in addition to NBC / Golf Channel’s already blockbuster schedule of events during the first half of the year, there will be an unprecedented stretch of golf on our networks, like the game has never seen. From the world’s oldest and arguably most prestigious championship, The Open at Royal Troon, to the reemergence of golf at the Olympic Games in Rio, through the always entertaining and exciting FedEx Cup Playoffs, to my favorite event in golf, The Ryder Cup, this will be an incredible run!

From a fan’s standpoint, 2015 will go down as one of the best years ever in golf….however 2016….well this one is going to be epic!
