THE PLAYERS Birdies for Charity is underway and through your participation, a local nonprofit organization could win $5,000.

Charities eligible for participation must be a 501 (c)(3) that solicits for donations to be made to their organization through Birdies for Charity. A $20 minimum donation is required to participate and each donor is given a chance to predict how many birdies will be made at the 2015 PLAYERS Championship. The person who guesses the exact or closest amount of birdies has a chance to win $5,000 for charity.

The 2015 PLAYERS Championship will be held May 5-10 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra. The tournament competition days, May 7-10, are when birdies made by PGA TOUR players will be counted for the Birdies for Charity contest.
