Jerry Foltz has been a familiar face on the Buy.com Tour the last several years, both as a player and on-course commentator. Jerry's ability to analyze the game coupled with his talent for articulating his thoughts in an entertaining way has propelled him into the world of golf commentary.
Foltz has used this ability as the on-course commentator for The Golf Channel the last five years. Jerry's personal knowledge of the tour players gives Jerry's commentary a personal touch.
Jerry's playing career is characterized by perseverance. In 1990, three days after turning professional, Foltz sustained a serious back injury in an auto accident involving a drunk driver. Jerry was determined to overcome the injury and went on to success on the Nike Tour; including victories at the 1994 Newport Classic and 1995 South Carolina Classic.
While Jerry is committed to broadcasting, he will continue to play in several Buy.com Tour tournaments throughout the year. When Jerry is not on the course or behind a microphone, he participates in corporate outings and charity events throughout the country. Foltz is also active as a spokesman for Natural Golf, and helps out at the equipment company's golf school. Jerry also writes a weekly Internet golf column for GOLFonline.com.
