Immelman - 2008 Masters champion and captain of the 2022 Presidents Cup International team - will make his debut as CBS Sports' new lead golf analyst. Ian Baker-Finch and Frank Nobilo will join Nantz and Immelman to provide analysis from the Super Tower throughout the season.

CBS Sports Network also will air both classic PGA TOUR telecasts each week leading up to the tournament on CBS, as well as encores of CBS' final round coverage on Monday nights.
