Sanderson Farms Championship

Executive Director of the Sanderson Farms Championship Steve Jent joins Gallo this morning to speak on the wonderful event at the Jackson Country club and how much money was raised for Children’s of Mississippi, the state's only children's hospital.

Mackenzie Hughes captured the Sanderson Farms Championship on Sunday, defeating Sepp Straka in a playoff at The Country Club of Jackson. Hughes birdied the second playoff hole to seal his second win on the PGA TOUR, his first six years ago at the 2016 RSM Classic, also in a playoff.

“We are very excited to have Mackenzie as our 2022 Champion," said executive director Steve Jent. "I have known him for several years. He is truly a class act and will be a great ambassador for the tournament. We couldn't have asked for a better tournament experience this week to begin our new era with the Wayne-Sanderson Farms organization. We have the best title sponsor on the PGA TOUR in Wayne-Sanderson Farms."
