PGA Prez: Bethpage News Not Leaked By Us

Because the NCAA's Summer Match Play is going on this week...err the U.S. Amateur, PGA President Ted Bishop was asked by Matt Adams on PGA Tour Radio if this was a PGA of America return punch. Though it's hard to disrupt an event that so few are paying attention to.

On Matt Adams' Fairways of Life Tuesday, PGA of America President Ted Bishop was asked if the finalization of the long-rumored Bethpage PGA/Ryder Cup was meant as a shot back at the USGA. Since the PGA hasn't finalized the deal with no press conference is set, Bishop was fired up.

 “the PGA of America would not make any kind of a major announcement that would upstage any of one of our major championship partners or the PGA Tour, it’s not the right way to do things. ”

He also said...

“I am insulted that anyone would think that.” (on whether they leaked Bethpage info)…
