Man that is so true such a good way to describe it well done 👍🏽
Faldo's one of the all time great TV announcers to go along with being one of the all time great players. That's quite the resume.
Faldo was fantastic. 6 majors he was the best of his generation. I will never forget when he cried when seve died. I burst into tears. Can't even watch it back. Such a great man through and through!

the heart felt emotion of that broadcast was tremendous. that team loves one-another. golf is a game that captures the passage of time and friendships like few others. CBS and the broadcast team handled this with pure class.

A true legend, Sir Nick. A retirement well earned.
I must say I won’t enjoy watching golf nearly as much without Sir Nicks perfectly timed comedic commentary. What a LEGEND, you deserve some time for yourself and your family but we will miss you dearly! Cheers to you Sir Nick
One of the memories I have of Sir Nick, was he was broadcasting the Masters and someone yelled get in the hole after a tee shot. Nick's response was please God, no, not at the Masters. Classic Sir Nick Faldo having so much respect for the game. Praying for your continued success away from the broadcast booth.
One of the greatest golfers of all time. And what a fine man. Emotion. Let it all go. ❤
Sir Nick has been a very integral part of my weekends for a very long time. CBS golf will absolutely NOT be the same without him. Said needlessly. Enjoy your retirement Sir Nick Faldo! Thank you sir. 💯❤️
WOW!!Unbelievably emotional!!You can clearly see just how much they mean to one another.....Happy retirement Nick.
Certainly one of the best commentators in golf AND a tremendous number of achievements on the tour. I’ll miss him !
Quite possibly the greatest sports broadcaster, golfer, and person ever, for any sport. Truly a legend. He will be missed dearly.

Wow. I didn’t see this live. And I did not expect the amount of tears here. Kind of cool to see. He’s always been pretty stoic through the years. Shows just what it all meant to him and that is always cool to see.
CBS Golf will never be the same with Sir Nick Faldo, I watched this live and it was a very very emotional moment. Enjoy retirement Sir Nick! we will for sure miss you.
I was a huge Greg Norman fan growing up. Turns out, I backed the wrong horse! Thank you Mr. Faldo.

No you didn't. The 2 best players in the 80's and 90's. I always wanted to see Faldo as a kid. So back in 1991 at Birkdale I couldn't wait. But I seen Norman 1st and was shocked how I was fixated by him. His swing, his hair, etc. Me and my old friend played for years, I was Faldo and He (spike) was Norman. Lol.

Well I’ve been a golfer for 31 years. This man is a staple in our community. I’m sad he’s going but it’s a joy to see someone retire on top of their game.
Nick Faldo put his heart and soul into a game he loved, and he was very funny, as well as a great teacher in the comm box. Golf, clearly was very therapeutic for him, just like all players around the world. It's a beautiful game if you want it to be. Congrats Sir Nick Faldo on what you all done for yourself and us in the game.
Golf's Harrison Ford. Top commentator, great guy & golfing legend. Shame the British media didn't appreciate him as a player just like they tried to destroy Ivan Lendl & Novak Djokovic.

Agree about the UK media (I’m British). They perused him relentlessly in his playing days and were more interested in his off course antics. A lot of people would have folded after that. I don’t think he ever forgave them.

Awesome tribute! One of my golf heroes!
Who says big boys can’t cry? What emotion! Hope the new guy can be half as good. One of the best ever.
One of my fav moments in golf this year. Nick, you were an unbelievable player and a terrific presence in the Comm Box. Thanks for the memories.
Love ya' Nick! Thanks for all the wonderful Sundays on the grass and in the booth. Sassy, classy and always a joy...
One of the best ambassadors for the game of golf.
I will miss Nick Faldo I grew up seeing him play and then listening to his voice. He is a class act and i will miss him dearly. I hope he and his family enjoy his retirement in Montana he deserves it.
Damn. Love the game of golf. Appreciate the genuineness of the folks who have brought the game to my TV through the years.
Thanks Sir Nick!!! You were my first favorite golfer as a kid. Happy retirement!! 🍻 👏
He was genuinely affected by that moment… Wow
What a class act. I will miss Sir Nick's excellent commentary, energy, and humor. Be well Mr. Faldo!
i took up the game when nick was still in his prime along with azinger and couples and never cared for him for being shut off and kinda arrogant but in a game thats so hard to win and as i learned alot about the game over the years i really got to admire him and became a huge fan..especially that he fly fishes as thats the sport i love most and i fish the gallatin river many times in mt and hopefully one day i get a chance to meet him...he really was a monster on the golf course and certainly had that intimidation factor but he is a very humble emotional wonderful ambassador for the game..best of luck to him
Boy did this bring me to tears too!
Love ya Nick! You will always be apart of the CBS golf family. I'll miss your blunt honesty & golf insight. Be blessed Mr. Green Jacket!
Cant say he didn’t give everything he has to the game. Class act and a great gentleman.
Nick was such a gentleman of the Sport. One of the real Greats!
Nick Faldo was easy to hate when he was on the European Ryder Cup team and easy to love on CBS Sports. Thanks Nick.

I didn't know about this interview when I saw it live on TV. It made my eyes watery... I felt all the emotions they are having.
I love Faldo. I’ll miss him during the masters most of all. Such a wise mature golfer! Shows a lot how great he probably is to work with seeing these guys tear up. Good luck Nick!
The greatest British golfer to have lived.. Thanks for the memories.
The last time I was this emotional about golf was when Ken Venturi said farewell with Jim Nance by his side. Still gets me!!
I'm dreading the day this happens on TNT. If Ernie or Chuck retires the show will never be the same.
All the best stories start with "I was in a boat in Ireland when... " Thanks Nick, I and we have enjoyed your commentary. Enjoy your retirement!!

Always great at describing what players are dealing with during tournaments, SO genuine, also !
This was truly a heart felt and emotional send off in the CBS tower for Nick Faldo. I think Nick is retiring too soon because I know Ken Venturi worked into his early 70's, and the golfing viewers would love to listen to Nick's excellent golf commentary for at least 5 more years. Enjoyed your wit and golf insight, Nick - you were the best. Congratulations on two great careers!
I can only imagine the feeling. I don't think anyone can prepare for the moment where they officially reflect back on their life up until that point in a very short timeframe and coming to the realization that a huge chapter is ending. It's truly an overwhelming feeling!
My golfing hero.
Sir Nick, thank you for your swing and thank you for your commentary. Blessings to you and your family.
I was stationed in London from 11/1989 to 11/1991. Best time of my life. I drove up to St. Andrew's in '90 to watch "Sir" Nick Faldo win the British Open. What memories. He's a great guy.

Sir Nick was misunderstood as a champion player largely because of his laser focus and fierce competitive nature. His remodeling his swing to win at the highest level is a feat few could ever pull off. Its a pleasure to see Sir Nick appreciated for his many talents and side not seen during his remarkable career as the United Kingdoms greatest player.
Amazing career on and off the course!! Off to your happy place, just thank you Sir!!
In all the years I have loved this Number One Sports game, Mr. Faldo has been simply one of the Favourites!
Thank you for all the memories Sir Nick!! Enjoy your retirement!!

I’m not crying… YOU ARE! Sheesh Sir Nick… who’s cutting the damn onions?!?!?!
This just shows you how much friendship means, especially for a man with so many accomplishments.
We'll miss you, Nick. You've taught us all so much about this great game. Given us a look into the psychology of a champion, how to manage ourselves and the course, and the nuanced feels of how to play so many golf shots. There will never be another one quite like Nick Faldo.

One of a handful of people I feel entirely at ease with having the "Sir" prefix attached. And there's always been something about his set up which looks so right.

If you’ve any doubts how Nick was, now you know. Sure will miss him
Sir Faldo, I started golf at 12 and adored and studied Hogan my whole life. I deeply love the great game. Really, to me it is a beautiful and spiritual integration of all facets of human being. You have been in sync with that dignity and beauty. I congratulate you on your dual achievements. Your commentary was always real, with many nuggets of insight that enhanced the event and even the sport itself. My love to you, in Christ. Remember that you are still a sinner saved by grace, not even your great works can prepare you to stand before a holy God. Praying for you, my man, and hoping to meet in glory.
hard to watch and not tear up. thank you for the brilliance you shared with us.
My uncle worked at Eastman Kodak in Rochester NY for 40 years (Nights/Days Double Shifts). When he retired (like millions like him) he didnt even get a thank you card. I also can ensure you, he never shed a tear. Life is funny somtimes.
Absolute Legend in the game. Thank You Sir Nick, it’s been our pleasure all these years. Your stewardship of the game will never be forgotten. Peace ✌️
