Since 1965, the PGA of America has gathered its past champions, like the Masters before it. The evening has changed a lot over time, but the intent has always remained to celebrate their accomplishments.
Jim Furyk was not expecting to get another chance to serve as US Ryder Cup captain, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t ready to take the reins again when the PGA of America called on him to lead the American team next year at Adare Manor in Ireland.
Azinger intends to make a pitch to new PGA of America chief executive Terry Clark to create a permanent position in the organisation dedicated solely to what has become the PGA’s most valuable asset.
Paul Azinger does not lack for opinions, especially when it comes to the Ryder Cup. Considered one of the best US captains in history, the major champ and longtime broadcaster has certainly earned the right to spout off.
The 12-time PGA Tour winner and past Ryder Cup captain told Golfweek on Monday that he will do part-time work on Golf Channel for 10-12 PGA Tour Champions tournaments in 2025.
Paul Azinger is no longer paid to give his opinions on the PGA Tour, but that didn’t stop the former broadcaster and player from offering a pretty gloomy take on the current state of professional golf.
Sarcasm is Kevin Kisner’s second language – the PGA Tour veteran from Aiken, South Carolina, armed with a dry wit that lets him hold court among his fellow players when they’re gabbing on the driving range.
Paul McGinley will step in as temporary lead analyst for NBC Sports’ golf coverage this week at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas. Golf Digest has confirmed the news first reported by the The Independent in Ireland.

By Sunday evening at Ryder Cups, as champagne is being sprayed all over the place, no one remembers what happened on the Friday morning. That’s the beauty of the Ryder Cup. The team is what matters.
It’s the Ryder Cup’s dirty little secret. Apart from his picks and choosing the pairings and lineup order, course setup is a home captain’s most potent lever to influence the matches.
Team chemistry feels like an abstract concept, and defining what it is at the Ryder Cup is a bit of a paradox, for there’s not a universal explanation for what it is and how it’s achieved.
