Kevin Kisner, a four-time winner on the PGA Tour, was named lead analyst for NBC Sports’ golf coverage alongside commentator Dan Hicks.
Kisner, 40, made his debut as an analyst for NBC in 2024, working in the booth for the Phoenix Open, The Players Championship and the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
A native of Aiken, S.C., Kisner still will maintain a limited playing schedule on the PGA Tour. He participated in 23 events in 2004 and made the cut six times, while finishing 198th in the FedEx Cup points standings.
“I’m humbled and grateful to have the chance to sit in the seat that many legends like Johnny Miller and Paul Azinger have sat in before me on NBC,” Kisner said in a release. “I’m looking forward to offering a different voice and adding a new dynamic to the broadcasts, hopefully reaching more fans and telling things like it is. That’s what I think I do best.”
Kisner’s most recent PGA Tour victory came in the 2021 Wyndham Championship when he bested Branden Grace, Si-woo Kim, Kevin Na, Adam Scott and Roger Sloan in a playoff.
Kisner also earned wins at the 2019 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, the 2017 Dean & DeLuca Invitational and the 2015 RSM Classic. He has earned $29.3 million since first joining the tour in 2011.
