Sanderson Farms Championship Tees Off in Jackson as Title Sponsor Exits After 2025

A narrow window now exists to secure a new backer to keep Jackson on the PGA Tour calendar.

Overview

  • The fall-series event runs October 2–5 at the Country Club of Jackson with a 132-player field led by defending champion Kevin Yu and entrants such as Akshay Bhatia, the Hojgaard brothers and Brandt Snedeker.
  • The purse is $6 million with $1.08 million to the winner, full FedEx Cup points are available, and fall winners no longer receive a Masters invitation.
  • Television coverage is on Golf Channel with streaming available on ESPN+ and Fubo, and national radio coverage airs on SiriusXM channel 92.
  • Wayne Sanderson Farms, title sponsor since 2013, confirmed this is its final year, and organizers are seeking a successor to avoid a potential lapse in Mississippi’s PGA Tour stop dating to 1968.
  • Players praised the tournament’s hospitality and community support, highlighting the event’s local value as officials court prospective sponsors.
