The Epson Tour officially announced today that Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina will be the official presenting sponsor of the inaugural Carolina Golf Classic. The penultimate stop in the 40th anniversary season takes the “Road to the LPGA” to Pinehurst No. 9 in Pinehurst, N.C., from Oct. 28-31.

“We are excited to conclude the 40th Epson Tour season with back-to-back events in North Carolina,” said Mike Nichols, the Chief Business Officer of the Epson Tour. “We are particularly grateful to organizations like Blue Cross NC, who joined our efforts this year to support our mission of empowering female athletes to pursue their dreams of playing on the LPGA Tour.”
