Golf Embraces Change of Color at Wells Fargo Championship

by Stacy M. Brown May 8, 2022May 9, 2022

If there were ever a perfect marriage between a corporate sponsor and one of golf’s alphabet soup organizations, the Wells Fargo Championship at TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm provided such a bond.

In conjunction with the 2022 Wells Fargo Championship at TPC Potomac, Wells Fargo and First Tee held a golf skills clinic with DC area youth and PGA Tour Professional Golfer Chesson Hadley at Langston Golf Course in Southeast prior to the Wells Fargo Championship later to be held later in the week.
