NBC SPORTS’ DAN HICKS, PAUL AZINGER, JIM “BONES” MACKAY AND TOMMY ROY PREVIEW 2021 U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP

“It’s going to be as much of a Tiger-hype with Phil as you could possibly think with any other golfer.” – Dan Hicks on Phil Mickelson

“I don’t care if they’re playing on the moon next week, he’s going to come in feeling very bulletproof.” – Jim “Bones” Mackay on Mickelson

“If you’ve earned the right to play in this championship, you’ve earned the right to be shown on TV in a meaningful way – it’s the DNA of the U.S. Open.” – Tommy Roy on Showing All 156 Players During Coverage

NBC Sports Presents More Than 45 Hours of Live U.S. Open Championship Coverage from Torrey Pines Golf Course Thursday-Sunday Across NBC, GOLF Channel & Peacock; 100-Plus Hours Including Featured Groups

GOLF Central Live From the U.S. Open Provides More Than 40 Hours of Live On-Site Pre- and Post-Championship Coverage; Continues in Primetime Tonight at 7 p.m. ET on GOLF Channel

STAMFORD, Conn. – June 15, 2021 – NBC Sports play-by-play commentator Dan Hicks, analyst Paul Azinger, and on-course reporter Jim “Bones” Mackay, as well as producer Tommy Roy, previewed the upcoming 2021 U.S. Open Championship at Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego, Calif., on a media conference call last week.

Following are excerpts from the call. Click here for a full transcript.

Tommy Roy on NBC Sports’ presentation of the U.S. Open: “The goal as usual is to show all 156 players in the field. My feeling is that if you’ve earned the right to play in this championship, you’ve earned the right to be shown on TV in a meaningful way. So we look forward to following up on all the stories of golf’s longest day and the guys that fought to qualify for this event. It’s the DNA of the U.S. Open.”

Dan Hicks on Phil Mickelson: “It’s going to be as much of a Tiger-hype with Phil as you could possibly think with any other golfer is this Mickelson-hype going in, because obviously he’s got all the runners-up, the record six runners-up in the U.S. Opens and this would complete the Grand Slam.”

Jim “Bones” Mackay on Mickelson: “He’s coming off this amazing PGA Championship win. I don’t care if they’re playing on the moon next week, he’s going to come in feeling very bulletproof, in my opinion.”

Hicks on calling Tiger Woods’ tying putt on the 72nd hole and victory at the 2008 U.S. Open: “In the world of golf, the Tiger thing has topped them all. You can go back to what we have done at a number of championships and events through the years. Brookline in ’99 was off the charts. So many other events that I’ve had the privilege of doing, all the Olympics, but the Tiger thing was just, I still can’t believe it.”

Paul Azinger on Bryson DeChambeau: “Bryson’s coming into this U.S. Open having kind of really made his mark on the game as the cutting edge guy with just going to try to overpower courses with technology and all that. He’s blazing a trail and he did it at Winged Foot. He laid a marker in the ground with respect to power. But I think the misnomer is everyone thinks it just came strictly off the tee, but Bryson’s power was shown from the rough, a pretty thick rough. I am really curious how the USGA is going to respond to that — are they going to grow the rough up here at Torrey Pines maybe a little deeper than it was?”

Hicks on his ‘expect anything different’ call of Woods’ playoff-forcing putt in 2008: “You’re trying to enhance the moment. You really have no idea when you’re doing it that it’s going to live on that, in the way it does. But it’s neat to have the opportunity to enhance the moment and it’s really cool to have it live on decades afterward and still hear about it.”

Roy on technological details that will be featured during coverage: “We have more cameras on the 6th tee, 88 in all, for our 4D replay device than we had in the entire golf course in 2008. So that’s right, 88 cameras on that one tee box. You throw in all the tracking, tracing technology, the virtual graphics, double coverage from the sky with a plane and a drone and a menagerie of specialty cams. We’ve got a ‘scorpion crane,’ ‘rat cams,’ a ‘frog cam’ in the pond at 18. It’s a veritable wild kingdom out there.”

NOTES & QUOTES – YUKA SASO WINS 2021 U.S. WOMEN’S OPEN

By

“Step aside Manny Pacquiao – the Philippines has a brand new sports hero.” – Rich Lerner on Yuka Saso

“What a comeback today, especially after getting off to a tough start with two double bogeys early. Perseverance was key.” – Morgan Pressel on Saso

 “Olympic is still a haunted house. You really saw that U.S. Open pressure. The putts at 17 and 18 were just not very good at all.” – Rich Lerner on Lexi Thompson

“She looks like she could win seven, eight, nine times in a year when you watch her hit golf shots. But when you watch her on the greens, she always looks like she has a rattlesnake in her pocket. That’s tough to overcome.” – Chamblee on Thompson

Tomorrow – GOLF Channel Surrounds U.S. Open Final Qualifiers With 12 Hours of Coverage of “Golf’s Longest Day” Beginning at 7 a.m. ET

STAMFORD, Conn. – June 6, 2021 – NBC Sports concluded its 25-plus hours of comprehensive coverage of the 2021 U.S. Women’s Open from The Olympic Club in San Francisco, Calif., this evening.

Nineteen-year-old Yuka Saso (-4) won her first career U.S. Women’s Open championship, defeating Nasa Hataoka (-4) on the first sudden-death playoff hole following a two-hole aggregate playoff. Lexi Thompson bogeyed the final two holes to miss the playoff by one shot.

Yuka Saso -4*
Nasa Hataoka -4
Lexi Thompson -3

Megan Khang -2

 

On Yuka Saso (-4, Champion)

Saso during post-round interview with Kay Cockerill: “Rory McIlroy mentioned me on Instagram and said, ‘Get that trophy.’ And I did – so thank you Rory.”

Rich Lerner: “Step aside Manny Pacquiao – the Philippines has a brand new sports hero.”

Tom Abbott: “A new star in the women’s game! A birdie to win – doing it in style.”

Morgan Pressel: “What a performance by her this week. What a comeback today especially, after getting off to a tough start with two double bogeys early. Perseverance was key.”

Brandel Chamblee: “She swings like Rory McIlroy, her putting stroke looks like a combination of Tiger Woods and Ben Crenshaw, but beyond that, her ability to keep her composure and her short game were brilliant…it’s her short game this week that really stood out and shocked me”

Paige Mackenzie: “This golf swing that had been so rhythmic and so pure was lost for the first several holes – but on the back nine, a different person showed up. Yuka remembered who she was…and when she gets short irons in her hand, what she’s done so well all week long is give herself birdie opportunities.”

On Lexi Thompson (-3, 3rd  place)

Lerner: “Olympic is still a haunted house. Haunted for the favorites, that’s for sure…you really saw that U.S. Open pressure. We all feel for Lexi Thompson, no doubt about it – but the putts at 17 and 18 were just not very good at all.”

Pressel: “She just made a few too many mistakes coming down the stretch. Missing fairways at 11, 12, 14…coming up short (on her putts) on the last two holes…it looked like she was trying to be too perfect on the last hole.”

Pressel on her missed par putt on 17: “Just one of the worst strokes we’ve seen from Lexi all week…she knew it right away. She didn’t look committed.”

Lerner: “Did she buckle under the pressure?”

Pressel: “I think anyone would struggle to handle the pressure of a U.S. Open. The big lead on the back nine, we’ve seen it here at Olympic before.”

Chamblee: “When you have a weakness, it tends to show up under major pressure…she looks like she could win seven, eight, nine times in a year when you watch her hit golf shots. But when you watch her on the greens, she always looks like she has a rattlesnake in her pocket. That’s tough to overcome. When you’re as good a player as Lexi is, heartbreak comes with the territory…but the thing I can’t understand when I watch Lexi all these years is why she does not experiment more often with different ways to putt…it’s a glaring weakness and it’s clearly holding her back.”

Mackenzie: “There were so many good things today and that’s the perplexing part. Her great is really, really great. She has a skill set that other players don’t have. But it’s impossible to ignore the deficiency on the putting greens. The standard of which we measure her is mediocre…if she could figure out how to master to that, she would win a lot more trophies.”

Chamblee: “Her putt on the first hole, she missed the center of the putter by a half an inch. I’ve never seen a professional golfer miss the center of the putter by a wider margin than that…I don’t think she could have built a big enough lead to have felt comfortable, because when you miss the center of the face on the first hole of a major championship in the final round by that much, you think to yourself, ‘What just happened here? How short does the putt need to be?’”
