Sporting celebrities DJ Carey, Eric Miller and Keith Wood will be using their golfing skills next Monday in a bid to win £10,000 for their favourite charities. All three will be at Portmarnock Links for the launch of the Chiquita Longest Drive Challenge which will be contested over the summer months by members of 40 clubs in the Dublin region.

Carey, Miller and Wood will all be trying for long drives of their own and will then be among those taking one shots at a human-sized inflatable banana approximately 120 metres from the tee. Should anyone hit it, the sponsors will cough up £10,000.
