“We are very excited to once again welcome women’s professional golf to Richmond,” said Craig Ramsbottom, President of Dynamic Brands. “Over the years, the community has rallied behind the tournament and I expect attendance to be strong again this year. It has been a wonderful experience being part of this tournament which benefits FeedMore, a charity that provides relief for the hungry in Central Virginia.”

“As the Tournament Director and a PGA Head Professional, I have worked with Dynamic Brands and their companies in our merchandising operation at Richmond Country Club and we are very excited to have them as a partner for the Eagle Classic,” said Matthew Schulze, Head Professional Richmond Country Club. “To have a major golf manufacturer, locally based, continue to support our Symetra Tour event is awesome. The success and growth of the Eagle Classic would not be possible without Dynamic Brands commitment to keeping women’s professional golf in Richmond.”
