Amanda Balionis made thoughts clear on Jim Nantz as he announces Masters retirement plan
CBS reporter Amanda Balionis has hailed her colleague Jim Nantz as the veteran broadcaster has now opened up on his retirement plans following the Masters this April
Jim Nantz doesn’t intend on retiring from calling the Masters any time soon, which will be news to the ears of CBS co-star Amanda Balionis.
Balionis has long been a big fan of Nantz, once labelling him as the world’s number one broadcaster. Known for his work on NFL, PGA Tour and NBA telecasts, Nantz is widely considered one of the finest sports commentators of all time.
Before stepping into the booth for his 40th Masters in April, he has declared that he intends on continuing to call the tournament until 2036. Balionis, who also covers a plethora of sports and works alongside Nantz, hailed the 65-year-old in an interview given last year.
“Jim Nantz is number one,” Balionis, 39, said. “I don’t think he could ever get enough credit for his talent. His memory knows no bounds; he recalls things in the moment in the most accurate way from 20 years ago that will put your jaw on the floor.
But it’s not just what he does on camera; it’s the way he carries himself as a person. He takes so much time to support and be an advocate for the people around him, and that’s what I want to be remembered for, too.”

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour
Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
