Gregor Biernath: “Something New and Good for Golf is Being Created Here”
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 be created 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 faces have also been found among the commentators. Michael Born, previously a handball and football commentator at DAZN, will now join Herbert Gogel and Stephan Gandel in commentating golf events. Additionally, Holger Speckhahn, known mostly as an ice hockey presenter for MagentaSport, will also accompany the upcoming live broadcasts.
