Partnership extends the Carlisle Arizona Women’s Golf Classic
through 2026 and the tournament is moving to TPC Scottsdale –
Champions Course.
Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE: CSL) and the Epson
Tour announced a contract extension for the Carlisle Arizona
Women’s Golf Classic. The Carlisle Arizona Women’s Golf Classic is
one of the few 72-hole events on the Epson Tour schedule and will
now have the largest purse in Epson Tour history. The purse will
increase from $335,000 to $400,000 for the 2024 season, with the
winner taking home $60,000, the most in Epson Tour history.
“We are constantly seeking partners who share our goal of giving
our athletes the best opportunities to succeed and pursue their
dreams of playing on the LPGA Tour, which is exactly what Carlisle
has consistently done from day one of this great event,” said Epson
Tour Chief Business and Operating Officer, Jody Brothers.
Serving as a title sponsor for the Carlisle Arizona Women’s Golf
Classic since 2021, the entirety of its existence, Carlisle will
continue to support the event through 2026.
Chris Koch, Carlisle’s Chair, President, and CEO said, “We are
proud to partner with the LPGA Epson Tour to bring the Carlisle
Arizona Women’s Golf Classic to the Phoenix Community for the next
three years. We are honored to provide a sponsorship that will
bring the largest ever purse on the LPGA Epson Tour to TPC
Scottsdale. Carlisle is building the future of sustainable and
energy efficient residential and commercial construction products
with a group of dedicated, diverse and determined team members, and
we are thrilled to support the hard-working and resilient women who
are the future of professional golf and represent our values so
well.”
The “Road to the LPGA” will be heading to a new location when it
returns to Arizona, with the Carlisle Arizona Women’s Golf Classic
moving from Longbow Golf Club to The Champions Course at TPC
Scottsdale. TPC Scottsdale is best known for hosting the WM Phoenix
Open on The Stadium Course while its Champions Course has
previously hosted the first stage of PGA TOUR Q School and multiple
editions of the final stage of PGA TOUR Champions Q School. The
facility will add another professional event to their schedule when
the Epson Tour comes to town May 6-12, 2024.
“We are thrilled to welcome the Epson Tour to TPC Scottsdale,
where the challenges of the Champions Course are sure to test these
professionals during their journeys to the LPGA Tour,” said Brad
Williams, TPC Scottsdale General Manager and Regional Director of
Operations. “Many of the world's greatest female professional
golfers got their start on the Epson Tour, and we look forward to
seeing the next generation of stars on our golf course over the
next three years."
The tournament boasts a collection of talented champions, with
all three former winners currently on the LPGA Tour, including the
defending champion and 2023 Epson Tour Player of the Year, Gabriela
Ruffels.
Pro-Am and Volunteers opportunities are available at the
Carlisle Arizona Women’s Golf Classic, and more information can be
