Todd Martin Up Close and Personal at the US Open

This past week, Todd Martin, President of our Golf Division, had the privilege of joining our partners at NBC Sports supporting one of their hand held RF camera crews for the 110^th United States Open at Pebble Beach. Todd worked alongside lead camera man Dan Beard, who also happens to be the son of legendary golfer Frank Beard, and USGA officials Randy Olmstead and Ron Ripley. “It was an incredible experience working with Dan and the team.  A once in a lifetime invitation, with a front row seat to our national championship.” Peter Millar proudly outfits the NBC Sports golf broadcast and production team, and had several players in the field including Steve Stricker, Jason Dufner, Brendon de Jonge and Ben Curtis.
"The galleries were absolutely electric, and Pebble Beach has never looked better," Martin said.  "Being so close to the action, it gives you an even greater appreciation for how difficult the conditions are for a US Open and just how talented these players are. I cannot say enough about Dan Beard and his talents behind the camera, and for everyone at NBC Sports and the job that they do putting on the US Open broadcast. I want to express my sincere thanks to everyone at NBC for letting me be a part of this.”


As we said before, we're just as proud as a Peacock.
