biggest retail bank in Canada, has become an official sponsor of
the Professional Golf Association (PGA).
The three-year deal includes sponsorship of
the PGA Championship, and the Ryder Cup, the biannual competition
between Europe and the US.
The bank also becomes the official bank of the
PGA with access to the association’s 28,000 member golf
