PGA of America extends Bevacqua through 2021

The PGA of America announced Tuesday that it has extended the contract of CEO Pete Bevacqua through December 2021. His current contract was set to run through November 2018, but an extension was approved at a recent board meeting in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.

"Pete is an exceptional leader who has made a major impact as CEO," said PGA president Derek Sprague in a statement. "He created a bold vision for the PGA with the long-term strategic plan we are now implementing."

Bevacqua, 44, came to the organization in 2012 after stints with both the USGA and CAA Sports.
