David Feherty Biography

David Feherty was born in the seaside town of Bangor in Northern Ireland. He grew up with aspirations to become an opera singer until he discovered he had the knack for hitting a golf ball. He jokes about his career change “I was always interested in music from a very early age. But when I turned pro at age 17 I haven’t sung a note since. Now I only sing to punish my children.”
David enjoyed a successful professional career with 10 victories worldwide and over $3 million in prize money. He was a regular on the European Tour with victories including the ICL International the Italian Open Scottish Open South Africa PGA BMW Open Cannes Open and Madrid Open. He captained the winning Irish team in the 1990 Alfred Dunhill Cup and played on the European Ryder Cup Team in 1991 an experience that rejuvenated his fervor for golf.
In 1997 David retired from professional golf when offered a position as a golf commentator for CBS Sports. “I always enjoyed talking more than playing and now I’m being paid for what I like to do most.” In 2015 David joined NBC for analysis on tournament coverage. Thanks to his sharp wit and colorful personality he has become golf’s favorite announcer.
