Gregor Biernath: “Something New and Good for Golf is Emerging”

Gregor Biernath, one of the most recognized golf voices in the German-speaking world, is moving from Sky to MagentaTV. Biernath will lead the new expert team, supported by golf experts Florian Zunker, Bernd Ritthammer, and Max Kramer. About his move, Biernath said, “The entire team immediately gave me the feeling that something new and good for golf can emerge here. We can innovate and shake up golf coverage at MagentaTV.” He also described the new team as a “cool editorial team” and spoke of a “really good mix.”

New voices have also been recruited in the commentator area. Michael Born, who has previously worked as a handball and football commentator at DAZN, will commentate golf events together with Herbert Gogel and Stephan Gandel. Additionally, Holger Speckhahn, known mainly as an ice hockey presenter for MagentaSport, will also accompany the upcoming live broadcasts.
