TNT Sports' presentation of The Crypto.com Showdown will feature a world-class collection of commentators. Seven-time Emmy Award winner Ernie Johnson, whose golf resume also includes calling the PGA Championship, The Open Championship and The Match series, will be joined by a trio of popular and well-respected analysts - five-time Sports Emmy Award winner Charles Barkley, 2008 Masters Champion Trevor Immelman and renowned golf personality and former professional golfer David Feherty.

Two-time Masters Champion Bubba Watson will serve as an on-course correspondent for the second time on TNT, while Lauren Jbara will serve as course reporter.
