BirdieAPI MCP server

The golf data API. PGA Tour leaderboards with finishing positions, earnings and points, round scores and hole-by-hole scorecards, courses with par and yardage per hole, player and course history, our own strokes-versus-field rating, par-3/4/5 scoring splits and the winner prices of the four men's majors by sportsbook. The LPGA, LIV, the DP World Tour and the Korn Ferry Tour use the same tools. REST API and MCP server. 500 free credits, no card.

Quick start

This is a hosted (remote) MCP server over Streamable HTTP. There is nothing to install.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http birdieapi "https://mcp.birdieapi.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY"

  "mcpServers": {
    "birdieapi": {
      "url": "https://mcp.birdieapi.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY"
    }
  }
}

The key can also be sent as an x-api-key header or Authorization: Bearer. Connecting and listing tools works without a key; calling a tool needs one.

REST

curl -X POST https://mcp.birdieapi.com/v1/list_tournaments -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Every tool is POST /v1/{tool} with a JSON body.
