Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Jordan Spieth Dish on the PGA TOUR's New CEO

The PGA TOUR has found its CEO.

Brian Rolapp, after two decades with the National Football League, is joining the TOUR and will play an integral part of growing the game at every level and leading the charge in the media space.

“I am here with deep respect and curiosity to listen, learn from all of you, and help take the TOUR to the next level," Rolapp wrote in an open-letter on Tuesday. "Players are central to everything we do, and making sure they are supported and heard will be a top priority. At the same time, we are going to keep challenging ourselves to grow the game in new ways, reach new fans, and create a TOUR that reflects the future of sports and entertainment."

On Wednesday, Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Jordan Spieth were asked to comment on the TOUR’s new hire, and it sounds like the circuit hit it out of the park.

Here’s what they had to say at the Travelers Championship.

Scottie Scheffler

“I think it's exciting to have some new leadership. I think Brian will bring some good energy. Literally the first time I heard him speak was yesterday, so I really don't know much about him. I liked what I heard yesterday. I think our board and Jay and everybody put a lot of research into finding his successor, and to be able to get somebody from the NFL, especially somebody high up at the NFL, I think is pretty cool.

“The NFL is obviously a very successful organization. He's got a lot of experience and some new thought processes he can bring to the TOUR, and I think it's exciting.”

Rory McIlroy

“I haven't met Brian yet, but obviously I followed quite a bit of the news and the coverage yesterday. He certainly said all the right things and has an amazing background, two decades in the NFL, helping them expand internationally and basically become the behemoth that they have become.

“So for him to bring that experience to the PGA TOUR I think will be amazing, and I think it's great that Jay is there to help with the smooth transition also. Yeah, I think it's a really positive thing for the TOUR.”

Jordan Spieth

“I thought his comments to the players that were there, I really, really liked him. I think he seems like a steal from the most successful sports organization in the world and someone who is on the path to becoming potentially commissioner over there to coming over and taking the PGA TOUR forward.

“I think he resonated a lot with some of the players about challenging some of the networks on how they're showing the product. Then being open and willing to adapt and change while maintaining the integrity of the game. I think he said all the right things. From other players to other people that are sponsors that have reached out to me since have all been super excited about that hire and that we're very lucky to have him.”
