Wells Fargo Bank Championship, not just the only professional golf event sponsored Carolinas.
RBC Bank announced a plan Thursday afternoon, one of the sponsors of the tournament is played annually Heritage in Hilton Head, South Carolina, according to the results of golf, golf industry news blog and other Canadians. Raleigh-based RBC is the U.S. subsidiary of Royal Bank of Canada.
Golf score has said the case is called the Heritage Classic RBC. Not good in 2012, a week after the Masters.
Heritage, a popular event on the PGA Tour, has not been a major sponsor of this year. Sponsors of the past have included Verizon and WorldCom.
Nikki Haley, SC Governor should be a "significant statement" in the Hilton Head tournament later.
The timing is interesting news because Bloomberg said RBC Bank is in the block for sale. In this case, the issue will undoubtedly continue if the name RBC Bank will continue to participate in this tournament. BB & T Corp. and PNC Financial Corp. has been rumored as suitors.
In Charlotte, the Wachovia Championship has left the name of the bank for two years after Wells Fargo bought Wachovia in 2008. It has since been renamed the Wells Fargo Cup.
