World Series of Golf organizers have announced Lotto.com as the Official Lottery Courier Partner of the WSG Satellite Series.
The company is set to present a $10,000 check covering the entry fee for the tournament winner's participation in the WSG Championship National Final.
The final will be held in Scottsdale, Arizona on October 2, where one player will compete for a prize of up to $250,000.
The sponsorship follows the July 28 launch of the first WSG qualifying tournament staged at Topgolf, a poker-style golf competition running simultaneously across 30 venues in 11 states on September 1 and 2.
Lotto.com is sponsoring seven of those venues, including locations in Scottsdale, Gilbert, Glendale and Tucson, Arizona, as well as Centennial, Thornton and Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Robert Davidman, World Series of Golf CEO, said: “The reason this format translates so well is that it’s the same feeling everybody already understands. In both poker and golf you always need a little bit of excitement at the end.
Lotto.com has built a business around that exciting “big winner” moment, and they understand that the moment is worth celebrating.”
Thomas Metzger, Lotto.com CEO, said: “This is a tournament where an amateur can walk in and play their way onto a national stage in 30 days. That’s the kind of access we believe in.”
Lotto.com has recently sponsored Food For Thought Denver, a nonprofit providing weekend meals to children facing food insecurity across more than 75 schools in the Denver area. The sponsorship included support for the organization's annual Rock-A-Belly fundraising event.
Lotto.com currently operates as a licensed lottery courier in 12 US jurisdictions, including Arizona, Colorado and Puerto Rico, and requires all users to be of legal age
