Jim Nantz, if you didn’t know already, has one of the coolest backyards in golf.
This week’s AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am is located near Nantz’s home, and Nantz had the crew of The Dan Patrick Show over at his place Thursday afternoon. The centerpiece of Nantz’s backyard is a hole modeled after Pebble’s famous par-3 7th hole, so obviously the crew took their hacks. (You may remember Nantz and Nick Faldo playing it a few months ago.) Andrew Perloff tweeted some of the action from Thursday, which includes a video of Nantz standing over a shot and narrating it himself — with Masters theme music playing in the background.
“A playoff for the green jacket,” the longtime broadcaster says. “Just a whisper of wind … as Nantz gets ready to hit his 60-degree sand wedge.”
