The Heritage Classic Foundation is conducting the 15th annual Players Amateur Presented by Nautica at Berkeley Hall Club in Bluffton, South Carolina July 7-13. Please consider supporting the event by playing in the new Wednesday Contestant Amateur Tournament that pairs you with a Players Amateur contestant for a fun competition.
It is a great day filled with friends, food, spirits and exceptional golf. It is open to both men and women and it is a chance to meet some outstanding young men from all over the world. It is the major fundraiser for the Players Amateur. Funds raised from the Wednesday event will be distributed to nonprofits in Southern Beaufort County.
The Heritage Classic Foundation was formed in 1987 as a 501 (c)(3), not-for-profit organization. It serves as the operational and financial oversight group for the RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing and The Players Amateur. Since the Foundation began, it has donated more than $26 million to universities, charities and medical institutions across South Carolina and Georgia.
The Players Amateur is recognized as one of the premier amateur events in the country. Many of its past participants have become successful on the professional level. Ben Curtis, Rickie Fowler, Bill Haas and Camilo Villegas are all past champions who have also won PGA TOUR titles. There were 31 Players Amateur graduates who competed in the 2014 RBC Heritage. Together they have close to $186 million in career earnings.
