LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Grammy Award winner Wynonna Judd has agreed to participate in the opening ceremonies of the World Equestrian Games this fall in Lexington.
The games announced Wednesday that the Kentucky native will perform her rendition of "My Old Kentucky Home" during the event's opening on Sept. 25 in a stadium expected to hold about 30,000 spectators.
The international event features human and equine athletes from eight disciplines and will be held through Oct. 10 at the Kentucky Horse Park. It is the first time the competition will be held outside Europe.
Judd has sold more than 30 million albums throughout her 25-year singing career and won five Grammy awards.
