Wyndham Championship Introduces University Row Featuring Four N.C. Universities

This year, the Wyndham Championship introduces University Row, a hospitality venue featuring four North Carolina universities. The 79th annual Wyndham Championship is set for Aug. 14-19, 2018 at Sedgefield Country Club. Appalachian State University, High Point University, North Carolina A&T State University and the University of North Carolina – Greensboro will occupy University Row in its inaugural year. Each school will host its guests in a private viewing platform located at the player’s right of the 10th green. Guests of the four schools will enjoy a joint hospitality area featuring food and beverage, upscale restrooms and access to the air-conditioned Legends Club presented by Matthews Mobile Media on the opposite side of the 10th green. Each of the four schools will control its own access to University Row. “We’ve always wanted to engage some of the local universities to attract their alumni,” tournament director Mark Brazil said. “We approached their athletic and alumni departments to see if they had any interest in participating in a unique program to entertain alumni and donors. It’ll be an all-inclusive experience that should be a lot of fun. I think it’ll be a great opportunity for executives, alumni and donors from each school to mix and mingle while they all learn a little more about the Wyndham Championship.”
