Too bad, I always liked Jerry a lot. He would sometimes forget that he was speaking to non-English speakers when he interviewed Koreans, but he was always a very big supporter of the Sisters. Apparently his last work on the tour came in his interview of Eun Hee at the Match Play (yep, he's already outta there). Jerry Foltz Leaving Golf ChannelMaybe we can swap Jerry for Karen? Just a thought... |

![]() Jerry is one of the best - will definitely be missed on the LPGA. He got it, never a homer like so many of the other commentators. Late Saturday afternoon at the Chevron this year.  |

He'll be back. I give it a year...or sooner.
Can't say I blame him. They're probably paying him triple what he was making at GC. And, at 59, I'm sure he's looking at cutting back on the physical labor and padding his nest egg. GC never promoted him to full-time on the men's tour.
I read another article that said he'll be in the booth, not on the course. I heard him doing play-by-play once on the Geezer Tour and was not impressed. His iconic "golf whisper" voice doesn't really lend itself to standard announcing and I thought he rambled a lot.
But best of luck to him.

I thought he originally took the job on the condition he would be covering the LPGA and not the men's tours.

Watched about 20 minutes of this thing. Jerry waxed rhapsodic about how the LIV money is a huge game changer..."not only career-changing but life-changing."
Can't help but think he was mostly talking about himself.
