NEW YORK (AP) -- The chief executive officer of the PGA of America says golf must concentrate on diversity to compete for fans.
Speaking at the Sports Diversity & Inclusion Symposium on Wednesday on Citi Field, Pete Bevacqua told the audience ''golf realizes it has to really make some fundamental changes and unbelievable progress in this area if the game is going to continue to be healthy.''
''If we're not more diverse in the next 25, 50, 100 years, the sport's in trouble,'' he said. ''So instead of hiding from that, we're embracing that, and we're trying to institute those changes at every aspect of our organization.
