Sanderson Farms Championship

The Sanderson Farms Championship is a professional golf tournament on the PGA Tour held annually in Mississippi. It originated as the Magnolia Classic in 1968 at Hattiesburg Country Club, later moving to Annandale Golf Club in Madison before settling at its current venue, the Country Club of Jackson in Jackson, Mississippi, since 2014. The Country Club of Jackson features 27 championship holes, with an 18-hole layout redesigned by John Fought in 2008, measuring 7,400 yards from the championship tees. The tournament is typically held in early October, with the 2025 event scheduled for October 2-5, offering a purse of $6 million. The Sanderson Farms Championship is part of the FedExCup Fall series and has a rich history, including raising over $10 million for children’s charities in Mississippi. It operates as a community-focused event with military and first responder appreciation programs, providing free admission to these groups. The tournament promotes golf for charity benefit and is a prominent PGA Tour stop.
