America’s Cup-winning tactician and veteran broadcaster Gary Jobson will be behind the microphone when the America’s Cup World Series resumes in San Francisco next week.
Jobson, who won the America’s Cup in 1977, has been a television producer and commentator on sailing broadcasts since 1985. He will team with Todd Harris, who boasts experience across a wide variety of sports, from football and basketball to IndyCar Racing and the Olympic Games.
“Gary Jobson’s experience and knowledge, along with Todd Harris’ commentary is a great combination,” said Stephen Barclay, the CEO of the America’s Cup. “Their voices, as well as the live onboard audio from the sailors, will immerse our viewers in the Cup experience as the teams compete on the challenging San Francisco Bay racecourse.”
The “Super Sunday” final races of the America’s Cup World Series San Francisco will be broadcast live nationwide on NBC on Oct. 7, beginning at 1:30 p.m. (PDT).
