Ian Baker-Finch Retires After a Successful Golf Career

The renowned golf commentator, Ian Baker-Finch, has announced his retirement after a career of almost three decades in the industry. The news was communicated through an official statement. Baker-Finch, 64, has been a prominent figure in the broadcast of golf events for many years, especially on CBS Sports. As a player, the Australian is remembered for his victory at the 1991 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. His transition to the world of broadcasting began in 1998.

After 19 incredible years as a golf analyst with CBS Sports and a remarkable 30-year career in the industry, I announce my retirement from broadcasting. Golf has been a huge part of my life. I was fortunate enough to compete against the best players in the game and, more recently, to work with the best in television. To my CBS Sports family, my teammates, producers, directors, and crew, thank you for your extraordinary talent, dedication, and camaraderie. You have turned every moment in the booth into a job, transforming broadcasts into cherished memories.
