Clad in an orange shirt during Wednesday's practice round at Southern Hills, CBS golf anchor Jim Nantz said, "I'm anointing myself as an honorary Oklahoma State Cowboy for the day."
Nantz said he was hoping to cross paths with Mike Holder, the Oklahoma State athletic director and former Cowboy golf coach, during the PGA Championship. Holder's OSU golf teams captured eight national championships. Nantz was familiar with Holder's teams because he played golf at the University of Houston.
"I have so much respect for him," Nantz said of Holder. "I still think of him as a golf coach who has mentored all of these guys I've covered all these years."
