Ben Crane wore his school colors from the University of Oregon last year on University Day.

LA JOLLA, Calif. – For Saturday’s third round of the Farmers Insurance Open, TOUR pros are encouraged to wear their university colors in support of the “University of Farmers” campaign.

Players wearing their team colors with the lowest third-round score will receive a charitable commitment to their school’s golf team.

The player with the low round will win $20,000 to his school’s golf team. Second place will win $10,000 and all players wearing school colors will get at least a $500 commitment to their school’s team.

Overall, Farmers hopes to donate up to $70,000 as part of “University Day."

If a player finishes in the top three who did not attend a college, a donation in that player’s name will go to the Golf Coaches Association of America to help cultivate future golf stars.

In additions, fans also are encouraged to wear their school colors and will receive a branded koozie at the Farmers CAT bus on the 17th fairway if they are participating.
