Mark Lamport-Stokes

I have extensive experience in voice-over work, broadcasting, journalism, copy editing and communications, having worked in this sector for 36 years as a play-by-play commentator, reporter, sub-editor, cricket writer and golf writer with television networks, newspapers, international wire agencies, radio stations and magazines - most notably with Reuters as a chief sub-editor for five years and as golf correspondent for 14 years, with BBC World Service, Agence-France Presse, the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) and Golf Digest SA. From 1984 to 2000, I worked as a play-by-play cricket commentator for the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation, SABC, British Telecom and BBC World Service. After my time with Reuters as golf correspondent, I was Director of Communications from February 2017 until March 2020 at the Ladies Professional Golf Association in Daytona Beach, Florida, where my work included doing multiple voice-overs for in-house promotions.
