BURLINGTON, N.C. -- One of the country's most prestigious golf tournaments is swinging into high gear. The Wyndham Championship brought thousands of golf lovers to Greensboro. Several Triad Businesses are benefiting from the tournament including a dry cleaning shop.

"Having it six years in a row, we've just gotten a little bit better about it every year," said Gary McPherson who owns McPherson Cleaners in Burlington.

McPherson Cleaners is the official dry cleaning service for the Wyndham Championship.

"This is one of our slower times so we can kind of concentrate on a project like this," added McPherson.

He said every morning by 9 a.m staff pick up 60 to 70 bags of laundry from Sedgefield Country Club where the tournament is being held.

The bags hold several pieces of clothing which have to be sorted, cleaned and returned to their owners by 4 p.m.

McPherson said his regular customers are understanding and equally excited. Many of them often ask him about mingling with golf stars at the country club.
