Rory McIlroy is having a great season. Although he could have achieved much more, it seems that the victory at the Masters is still an indication that Rory has a great season behind him, the season he has been waiting for for years.
The Northern Irish golfer competed in the career Grand Slam and put an end to various criticisms, rumors and complaints that came from all sides.
In addition to Rory McIlroy, big changes also happened on the golf scene when it comes to the PGA Tour and LIV Golf.
Namely, both parties decided to change CEOs.
The new PGA Tour CEO is Brian Rolapp, a person who could take this story in a completely different direction.
Rory McIlroy had the opportunity to meet with Rolapp, sharing his impressions about her meeting. The 36-year-old golfer is very satisfied with the conversation with him, and he is especially delighted that Rolapp is not a person who comes from the world of golf. He expects great things from the new PGA Tour CEO.
"So I hadn’t met him up until last week, and I was able to spend a good 90 minutes with him just talking through everything to do with the TOUR and what’s — the whole thing over the past three or four years and what the future looks like.
I like him. I like him a lot. I like that he doesn’t come from golf. I like that he doesn’t have any preconceived ideas of what golf should look like or what the TOUR should look like. I think he’s going to bring a fresh perspective to everything, and I think he wants to move pretty quick, so I’m excited.“- he said, as quoted by The Golfing Gazette.
What can we expect?
Fans believe that the new PGA CEO could be an important figure for the future of golf, but also an important link in the unification between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour. Such personalities were needed in the golf scene, and we will see if he can make the future of the sport much more promising.
