Guide to Sanderson Farms PGA Championship
Invitation-only events begin Sunday, September 29, and on Wednesday, October 2, gates open to the public.
History and Charitable Contributions
The Sanderson Farms Championship has been a staple on the PGA Tour since 1968, and a significant milestone came in 2013 when Sanderson Farms, based in Laurel, Mississippi, took on the role of title sponsor.
Beyond being a remarkable sporting event, the championship takes pride in giving back to the community. With a total of more than $8.1 million raised for statewide charities, the primary charity for the championship is the Friends of Children's Hospital, benefiting Children's of Mississippi, where over 150,000 children are treated each year through state-of-the-art medicine and research.
