LPGA Friday: Rankin Returns; Three Players To Help Golf Channel Production
/From Golf Channel's pre-broadcast notes for the Kia Classic. First, the great news:
Hall-of-Famer Judy Rankin returns to Broadcast Booth – World Golf and LPGA Hall-of-Famer Judy Rankin returns to the broadcast booth Saturday and Sunday for Golf Channel’s weekend tournament coverage.
And now for the scary...in a fun way:
Lincicome, Kim and Lewis to Help Produce Telecast on Friday – During Friday’s live tournament coverage, LPGA professionals Brittany Lincicome, Christina Kim and Stacy Lewis will visit Golf Channel's production areas following their rounds, when one will try her hand at play-by-play host, one will produce and one will operate a tower camera.
Let's hope Christina gets the play-by-play gig A) to test the limits of a broadcast delay and (B) because she will seriously liven up the proceedings. No offense, Rich Lerner and Judy Rankin!
