As we talk about bat and announcer Dan Hicks who entered the US Open Championship radio booth to pull its arm, analyst Kevin Kisner dodged it, we must first say thanks.
Then, he was polite and could prepare the camera.
Because without you, we might miss one of Royal Protush’s Friday highlights, most certainly the best non-golf course.
The scene was shown in the second round Friday, around 1:15 pm ET (6:15 pm local time), just as the broadcast ended showing Jon Rahm holding a putt in the rain. In it, Hicks tries to drive the bat away with both arms. Kisner fell lower and lower in his chair and then sought cover under his sports jacket.
Meanwhile, announcer Mike Tirico jumped into the game-by-game.
“So, as people spread around the golf course, everyone has to keep their paces flexible and fast,” he said. “Some moment ago, there was obviously some kind of bat flying around.
“Kevin Kisner, this is a proud hunter man – he is under his coat. He is shocked by the bat. Dan Hicks tries to stay away from him.
Two others were on the booth, though – analyst Brad Faxon and announcer Terry Gannon.
“Obviously, the fax on the other side is good and Terry. Keith covered up under his sports jacket (the best sports jacket). Dan saved his partner and protected him.”
Then, as JJ Spaun puts it, the four fell into trouble.
Hicks said: I tell you, Mike, because Spaun’s Birdie Putt is insufficient. Just when you think you’ve seen it all. ”
“Fax and I never even noticed it. Athlete concentration,” Gannon said.
“This bat made 20 laps around the tower,” Hicks said.
“It’s like the driveway is on one side of the course and the other. The bat is around you,” Faxson said.
“The fax is so focused, he has never seen it before,” Hicks said.
“I never blinked,” Faxon said.
Then there is Kisner. He also continued to play in the PGA Tour when he announced the Open, which will be played at the 3m Open next week.
“But I have to say, Hicksey, you’re a great companion because you’re protecting Keith,” Tirico said.
Hicks said, “I am.”
“Kiss is in the top 10 next week. We are protecting,” Tirico said.
“The great outdoor activist Kevin Kisner hid under the scene,” Hicks said.
From there, the Matt Fitzpatrick T-shirt appeared. However, the whereabouts of the bat are not yet known.
