August 4, 2014

PNC Financial Services Group has extended its sponsorship of Orlando’s Champions Tour stop.

IMG Golf said on Titter: “IMG Golf announced today that PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. has renewed its contract as title sponsor of the PNC Father/Son Challenge.”

The multi-year extension will keep the final event of the tour’s season in Orlando.

PNC became title sponsor in 2012, bringing back the tournament that was held in central Florida from 1995 to 2008.

This year’s tournament is set for Dec. 11-14 at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club Grande Lakes. It will air live on Golf Channel and NBC. Its 20-team field includes defending champions Stewart and Connor Cink and 19 other golfers who will be paired with a son or daughter.

PNC has a number of sports sponsorship including naming rights sponsor of Carolina Hurricanes home arena and Chip Ganassi Racing.
