Roger Maltbie

Roger Lin Maltbie (born June 30, 1951) is an American professional golfer and on-course analyst for NBC Sports.

He attended James Lick High School where he was a teammate of former PGA Tour player Forrest Fezler.

[5] In his second year on tour, Maltbie won the inaugural Memorial Tournament by defeating Hale Irwin on the fourth hole of a sudden death playoff.

On the playoff's third hole, an errant shot by Maltbie seemed headed for the gallery when it hit a stake causing the ball to bounce onto the green instead.

His signature element is a "golf whisper," necessitated by the fact that Maltbie generally stands much closer to the green than other on-course reporters.
