PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — The word “fans” was used 24 times by Jay Monahan in his Tuesday press conference at the 50th Players Championship.
After listening to the PGA Tour commissioner for 59 minutes, you would believe fans are the Tour's most important constituency and that everyone here is committed to making the pro game better for them.
Monahan said early in his remarks that he wanted to speak directly to the fans and, in an apologetic tone, downplayed the discussions of money.
