Media Statement from Kate Peters, Executive Director, LPGA State Farm Classic:
“State Farm has been a tremendous partner for the past 19 years, and we are disappointed by the news they will not renew their sponsorship past 2011. We are thankful for their years of support, and we’re still very much looking forward to working together to stage a great tournament in June.
“Our attention now shifts to securing a new title sponsor for 2012 and beyond. This tournament has been part of the Springfield and Central Illinois communities for more than 30 years, and it has a measurable impact on the local economy and area charities serving families in need. We will find a way to continue that level of support in Springfield and Central Illinois.”
