Update: 2025-03-24
Description
Derek Sprague was recently named CEO of the PGA of America, and is the first PGA pro to occupy that position in nearly 20 years. We talk with Derek about becoming both head pro and club manager at the Malone CC in upstate NY at the age of 21, and what that experience was like during his ensuing 27 years at the club. We also discuss how he became involved with the PGA, first at the section level in upstate NY and then at the national level which culminated in his becoming President of the PGA of America in 2014. We then cover some of the issues he grapples with as head of the PGA of America, including equipment regulation and the life of the club pro, and what his priorities are for the organization going forward.
