PGA Tour announces 2023 Player Advisory Council after Paul Azinger’s ‘colossal waste of time’ comment

Maverick McNealy, Adam Scott and Kevin Streelman have been selected to run for PAC Chairman.

The PGA Tour announced its 16-member Player Advisory Council on Monday morning, as well as a handful of future leaders.

Maverick McNealy, Adam Scott and Kevin Streelman have been selected to run for PAC Chairman, with the election set to end Feb. 13. The winner will replace Charley Hoffman as a Player Director on the PGA Tour Policy Board (board of directors) starting Jan. 1, 2024, and will serve at three-year term (2024-26). The current Player Directors are Peter Malnati (2023-25), Rory McIlroy (2022-24), Webb Simpson (2023-25) and Patrick Cantlay (2023).

The release comes less than 24 hours after Paul Azinger said serving on the PAC – a group of players who advise and consult the PGA Tour Policy Board and Commissioner Jay Monahan on issues affecting the Tour – was “a colossal of waste time” during the Sony Open in Hawaii broadcast.

Meet the players serving on the PAC in 2023 (alphabetical order):

  • Ryan Armour
  • Sam Burns
  • Corey Conners
  • Rickie Fowler
  • Brice Garnett
  • Brian Harman
  • Max Homa
  • Mackenzie Hughes
  • Shane Lowry
  • Maverick McNealy
  • Keith Mitchell
  • Henrik Norlander
  • Scottie Scheffler
  • Adam Scott
  • Kevin Streelman
  • Will Zalatoris

Streelman was up for chairman role in 2021 but McIlroy prevailed in that vote.
