With six tournaments remaining in the 2015 season, the Wounded Warrior Project Weekends and the eagles that drive the fund-raising element are in clear focus.

The Wounded Warrior Weekends takes place during the final two rounds at LPGA tournaments (final round only in 54-hole events), with CME Group donating $1,000 to the Wounded Warrior Project for each eagle that is recorded. This amount will increase to $5,000 for each eagle during the weekend of the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship and a formal check will be presented to the Wounded Warrior Project during the trophy ceremony.

Here’s a By The Numbers to prepare for the conclusion:

1, 22: The weekend eagle totals this year have varied from a season-low one (ShopRite LPGA Classic) to a high of 22 (Ricoh Women’s British Open).

8: The most eagles made in one of the remaining tournaments during the 2014 season, the 2014 Lorena Ochoa Invitational. The others include: LPGA-KEB Hana Bank Championship, 5; Blue Bay LPGA, 1; Fubon LPGA Taiwan Championship, 3; LPGA Japan Classic, 5; and CME Group Tour Championship, 0.

12: Sei Young Kim’s season-high total of eagles, which is followed by Lexi Thompson with 11, Minjee Lee with 10 and Amy Yang and Michelle Wie with eight each.

13: The number of eagles made at last week’s Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia, an increase of eight from last year’s total.

222: The number of eagles this year on the weekend, with $222,000 raised. A total of 59 eagles need to be made to match last year’s total, an average of 9.8 per week.

283: For the 2014 season, the number of eagles made on the weekend, raising $283,000. While no eagles were made on the weekend in Naples, the CME Group generously rounded up to $300,000. The 2014 season also had a lot of aces and double eagles. Of the 31 holes in one, 15 came in weekend play. Of a record four double eagles during the year, three were scored on the weekend.
