Sanderson Farms Championship: Full field for the tournament explored

The Sanderson Farms Championship is fast approaching and is just a few nights away. With the end of the Ryder Cup, the DP World Tour and PGA Tour are back with their respective regular schedule. The PGA Tour's FedEx Cup fall event will be played from October 5 to 8 at Country Club of Jackson in Jackson, Mississippi.

The tournament, which initially was an alternate event on the leading American Tour, got its full event status in the 2019-20 season. Since then, it has been offering its winner all the benefits that any regular PGA Tour has to offer, including an invitation to next year's Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club.
