Bethpage Press Conference Set For Tuesday

It looks like PGA of America CEO Pete Bevacqua has cleared space with the five family air traffic control and buttoned up the deal with Andrew Cuomo and we get a Bethpage-Black PGA/Ryder Cup for 2019/2024 announced this next week.

Mark Herrmann posted a tweet on new of the event.

I have a poll question for those who've been to Bethpage. As you may recall the finisher at the Black isn't very strong while the neighboring finisher on the Red is a beauty.

What hole would you rather see used as the finishing hole at Bethpage Black, 18 on the Black or 18 on the Red? (The 18th on Red is right next to the 18th on the Black and is a long, uphill par-4). Keep in mind historical context and the many dynamics involved with playing a different hole from a different course (mostly political). Would you do it?**

What hole would you like to see used as the finishing hole for a proposed Bethpage Black PGA Championship and Ryder Cup?

	18th on the Red

**Poll should now be working.
