The 2014 Sanderson Farms Championship is being played at the Country Club of Jackson in Jackson, Miss. The par-72, which will use the Azalea and Dogwood nines at the facility, will measure 7,354 yards for the event.

The field this week includes 2014-2015 season winners Ben Martin and Robert Streb, along with John Daly, David Duval and Lee Janzen. Most of the world's top golfers will be playing this week in the WGC-HSBC Champions event in China.

Last year, Woody Austin won in a three-man playoff against Daniel Summerhays and Cameron Beckman. At the age of 49, Austin was the oldest winner on the PGA Tour since 2007, and he'll be back in the field this year to defend his title.

Last year, Woody Austin won in a three-man playoff against Daniel Summerhays and Cameron Beckman. At the age of 49, Austin was the oldest winner on the PGA Tour since 2007, and he'll be back in the field this year to defend his title.

I remember that playoff like it was 5 minutes ago. When I started golfing a couple years back I played Cameron Beckman's putter. It was literally his putter from when he played junior golf, my father in law picked it up at a garage sale Cameron's father had. I've always felt the need to follow his progress as he tries to get his tour card back.

Last year he came soooooo close. He had a short putt to tie Woody and go to a 2nd playoff hole....he pulled it :~(

I'm hoping he has another good tournament. He can only play a handful of PGA tournaments, needs a win desperately.

Anywho, 17 year old high school senior Camden Backel qualified for the tournament :dance:

John Daly's first 9 holes today was....very John Daly. Eagle and a double bogey. He now has 2 birdies on the next 9 though, currently 4 under on the day.

The last Canadian-born golfer to win on the PGA tour was Mike Weir....7 years ago.

Finally Nick Taylor broke that drought.

    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
    • Let's kick off the 2026 Masters talk with… a look back at 2025 (coming soon):
    • Wow, so Europe named Luke for a third term. Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Who will the U.S. name? I hope not Tiger Woods.
    • I am playing Arrowhead for the first time and I am pumped.  What are some things that I need to make sure and appreciate, for those that have played it before and love it? It has been a pretty dry winter so I am expecting rough to be forgiving which is nice and it will be playing much easier than it does in the late summer (I am assuming based on other colorado courses).  What should I make sure to not miss?
