"Nantz supplied original content, he just did it by, well, freestyling the delivery.
"I'd be veering off the script," Nantz said. "There was a staccato, one-line-at-a-time delivery, but for maybe eight scripted lines I'd do four or five of my own," Nantz said. "I'd look back and notice they had each one of those lines coded for where it goes in the game. I'd say ‘Is that OK?' and they'd go, ‘We love it when you do that.'"
Unlike traditional voice work in a sports title, often fixated on the current season or its top performers, Nantz understood his job here was to narrate something very personal to those playing the game.
"It's like a religious experience. I know that, because I hear that from people all the time," Nantz said. "If this game gives them the opportunity to finally play Augusta National, to give them an experience that is real to them, and I'm there because I've been their tour guide at The Masters for the past 25 years, it will be just as nice for me." |
