Caddie Competition
"Courage is getting up in the morning every day to face a battle you know you can't win."- John Feinstein, author of Caddy for Lifeon Bruce Edwards
This is a tradition unique to THE PLAYERS Championship. The competition started to honor Tom Watson’s longtime caddie and friend, Bruce Edwards, who passed away in 2004 from ALS or “Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” In 2014, in honor of the 10th anniversary of Edwards’ passing, the PGA TOUR began a tradition of matching any donations the caddies/players make and donating the match to the Bruce Edwards Foundation. In 2025 we made a transition and now the winning caddie chooses a local foundation to donate $10,000 to!
