Sponsorship
Wachovia, a financial services company, was the title sponsor from the tournament's inception until the company was acquired by Wells Fargo, which chose to remove the Wachovia branding for the 2009 event.[3] After two editions as the Quail Hollow Championship, Wells Fargo attached its name to the event in 2011.
On December 8, 2023, Wells Fargo announced it would not sponsor the tournament after 2024.[4] On August 6, 2024, Truist, a Charlotte-based bank, was announced as the new title sponsor.
