PGA CEO Derek Sprague to Apologize to Rory McIlroy, Europe for Ryder Cup Abuse

Sprague said he’ll email “heartfelt apologies” to McIlroy and Europe’s team after fans hurled abuse and a beer toward players’ families at Bethpage. “People crossed the line,” he told Golf Channel. Tom Watson said he was “ashamed” of Team USA fans, while Matt Fitzpatrick called PGA remarks defending the crowd and comparing them to European fans “offensive.”
