Grade the Fox Sports World Cup announcers

It has been an eventful 2026 FIFA World Cup and the tournament isn't even close to being over with just yet.

For this year's tournament, Fox Sports employed nine broadcast teams, led by its lead announce pair of John Strong and Stuart Holden. However, Fox also built out a deep bench of commentators led by longtime American television stalwarts like Ian Darke, Derek Rae, and J.P. Dellacamera as well as those with plenty of Premier League and Champions League experience like Darren Fletcher, Owen Hargreaves, Rob Green, Ian Crocker, and Danny Higginbotham. There were also additional American voices like Lori Lindsey, Maurice Edu, and Landon Donovan.
