Golf world reacts to news of PGA of America CEO Seth Waugh stepping down at end of month

By barry lotz

A news dump happened late Wednesday when Seth Waugh announced he was stepping down from the PGA of America after the organization elected not to renew his contract.

During his tenure, the PGA relocated its headquarters from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, to a fancy, new campus complete with championship golf courses in Frisco, Texas, and committed to bringing 26 future PGA America championships – the PGA Professional Championship in April being the first of them – to the two courses built in its backyard. In his role, he also signed a lucrative 11-year TV deal with CBS and ESPN beginning in 2020.

He had an impact on the game of golf, but now it’s time for a new leader at one of golf’s biggest organizations.

Here’s what the golf world was saying in reaction to the news that Waugh was stepping down, both good and some finding humor in the situation.
