Stunned to hear of Dan Hick's passing. Known largly for his golf duties, I really liked the 2008 Olympic call of Michael Phelps, Jason Lezak 4 x 100 meter relay race. x.com/itismarkharris…
Dan Hicks, longtime lead golf play-by-play announcer for NBC Sports, has died following an acute illness. He was 64.
Across three decades, Hicks provided the soundtrack to some of golf’s most memorable moments. The Arizona native joined NBC in 1992 and assumed the network’s lead play-by-play role in 2000, his broadcast style defined by a steady delivery, unmistakable enthusiasm, and ability to capture the significance of a moment.
Hicks anchored weekend coverage of The Players Championship for nearly three decades and was behind the microphone for the evolution of the FedExCup, in addition to several major championships, bringing his composed approach to golf’s biggest stages.
For nearly two decades, Hicks worked alongside renowned analyst Johnny Miller in one of golf television’s defining broadcast partnerships. Hicks provided a measured presence, guiding viewers through the tension and unpredictability of a final round.
After graduating from the University of Arizona, Hicks began his broadcasting career in local radio and television before joining CNN in 1989. He moved to NBC Sports three years later, with assignments including Olympic swimming, alpine skiing and Notre Dame football. Golf, one of his favorite recreational pastimes, became an enduring beat. His voice will always be synonymous with the game.
Hicks is survived by his wife, sports broadcaster Hannah Storm, and their three daughters.
Rest in Peace, Dan Hicks.View quoted post on X
Here's a great "secret sauce" to @peacock #LineofFire, IMO. They go uptempo with a handul of an arc of storylines the few minutes. Beautifully written, shot, edited. Hooks You, then they roll the "Line of Fire" full screen font. Perfect. So many seasoned actors are a part of this one. I hope the writers don't get poached. Happens sometimes. #Strong show. @lof_updates @TheSpoilerTV @hollyoutbreak
