PGA of America Statement (VIDEO): Board of Directors Vote to Move 2022 PGA Championship From Trump National Golf Club Bedminster

ON SUNDAY THE PGA OF AMERICA distanced itself from President Donald Trump.

In the above video, PGA of America President Jim Richerson said:

"It has become clear that conducting the PGA Championship at Trump Bedminster would be detrimental to the PGA of America brand and would put at risk the PGA of America's ability to deliver our many programs and sustain the longevity of our mission. Our board has thus made the decision to exercise our right to terminate the contract to hold the 2022 PGA Championship at Trump Bedminster. It was a decision made to ensure the PGA of America and the PGA professionals can continue to lead and grow our great game for decades to come.
