World Golf Hall of Fame member, six-time major championship winner and former World #1 ranked player Sir Nick Faldo will host a new show on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio (XM channel 93, Sirius channel 208).

Nick Faldo Radio will debut this January and air monthly throughout the year.

"I am most excited about this new opportunity to talk golf with golfers and people you may not know are golfers; to get to know golf enthusiasts and have them get to know me," said Faldo.

"We are going to have fun connecting with those connected to SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio. I look forward to some real entertainment."

"Few people can offer a more experienced and informed perspective on golf than Nick," said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM's President and Chief Content Officer.

"His accomplishments on the course - which include six major championship victories - put him among the game's all-time great players, and he has built a remarkably successful second career in the broadcast booth.

SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio will offer him a new forum where he can interact with his audience and fans can call in to ask him questions throughout the season."

Before he became one of the most prominent broadcasters in golf as the lead analyst for CBS and Golf Channel, Faldo built one of the greatest resumes in the sport. His more than 40 professional wins include six major championships - three Masters and three Open Championships - and he spent 98 weeks atop the World Golf Rankings as the sport's #1 player. He is also one of the most outstanding Ryder Cup competitors in the annals of that event.

Starting in 1977, at the age of 20, Faldo played for 11 consecutive European teams and he remains today the leading individual point scorer from either side in Ryder Cup history. He is widely regarded as the most successful golfer that Britain has ever produced and for his contributions and service to golf, Faldo received a knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II in November 2009.

He is the only living British golfer to receive such an honor. He was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1998.
