Moving Day at the Players

Published

on

73 golfers made the one under cut at the 2024 Players Championship and start Saturday’s round chasing Wyndham Clark who surged to a 4 stroke lead on Friday with his second consecutive 7 under round. He has gained an astounding 13.7 Strokes Gained over the field with more than half (7.8) coming with the flat stick. Ranked 116th in the world just 12 months ago, Clark is looking for his fourth win on Tour. He broke thru at the 2023 Wells Fargo and added the 2023 US Open as his first Major. Clark shot a second round record 60 to win the rain shortened AT&T at Pebble Beach earlier this year. If he continues his stellar play, Clark will be difficult to catch this weekend.

TPC Sawgrass has played relatively soft this week. The course received significant rain preceding the event and the winds we’re used to seeing have not appeared. The field set a record average of 71.5 on Thursday and moved only slightly over par to 72.2 on Friday. Saturday’s forecast is for more of the same with warm temperatures and winds not expected to reach double digits. Officials seem to have forgotten about the middle of greens and the tucked hole locations combined with greens running over 13 on the Stimpmeter today should make for some interesting moments. There will be balls in the water on the iconic 17th island green with the hole cut a mere 5 paces on and 4 from the left edge.

Can anyone catch Wyndham? Canadian Open Champ Nick Taylor and Xander Schauffele both sit T-2 at 10 under. Maverick McNealy and Matt “I took the weights out of my grips” Fitzpatrick lie T-4 at 9 under. The number one golfer in the world, Scottie Scheffler, leads a stellar group a -8, but with Scottie nursing an apparent neck injury we’ll have to wait and see if his previously unheard of tee to green performance will bring him back into the mix.

As the 2024 Sanderson Farms Championship at the Country Club of Jackson heads into its final day, golf fans are eagerly anticipating an electrifying finish. The tournament has already delivered high-stakes competition and plenty of nail-biting moments, with the field of contenders showcasing both resilience and finesse throughout the week.

After three rounds of spectacular golf, Keith Mitchell enters the final day leading the pack at 20-under par, with Beau Hossler right on his heels at 19-under. Mitchell, whose only PGA Tour win came more than five years ago at the Honda Classic, faces a critical moment on Sunday as he aims for his second title. He was flawless on Saturday, carding a bogey-free 7-under 65 to climb to the top, but he knows Sunday will be a true test of nerves and skill.

“Tomorrow is a completely new day,” Mitchell stated after his round. “Last group. Been there before and failed a bunch on Sundays in the last group. I’m hoping I can learn from those mistakes.” Whether Mitchell can hold his composure and deliver a steady final round remains to be seen, but fans are excited to see if he can secure the victory.

Beau Hossler, searching for his first PGA Tour victory, will be applying pressure throughout the day, keeping Mitchell in his sights. Hossler’s performance so far has been marked by a series of strong rounds, but a crucial double bogey on the par-4 12th hole on Saturday set him back. Despite the setback, Hossler remains just one shot behind Mitchell at 19-under par. His determination and strong play make it evident that a breakthrough win may not be far off for the 29-year-old.

The final round also promises notable performances from several other players, adding to the intensity of the event. Kevin Yu is currently in third place at 18-under, after an impressive birdie streak on the back nine during Saturday’s round. Meanwhile, Bud Cauley, Lucas Glover, and Jacob Bridgeman are all tied for fourth at 16-under. Each of these players has shown tremendous fight, and the final round could see anyone emerge as a challenger.

Hayden Springer, who began the tournament as somewhat of an underdog, has turned heads with his exceptional play throughout the week. The TCU alum is tied for sixth, marking one of his best performances on the PGA Tour. Springer’s rise up the leaderboard exemplifies the competitive depth of this year’s field.

One of the highlights of the championship so far has been David Skinns’s course-record 60 during the first round. Though Skinns has struggled to maintain his initial momentum, currently tied for 44th, his performance on Thursday will be remembered as one of the standout moments of the tournament.

As Sunday approaches, Keith Mitchell will need to display the confidence and determination required to close out a win against a talented field. He will need to play calculated golf, understanding when to take risks and when to be conservative. The final round is set to be a thrilling showdown, with Mitchell, Hossler, and the rest of the contenders all striving to make their mark.

Whether Mitchell can capture the Sanderson Farms Championship trophy or if one of the chasing pack will rise to the occasion is still uncertain. For fans, the anticipation is building, and all eyes are on the Country Club of Jackson as the final chapter of this year’s tournament unfolds. The 2024 Sanderson Farms Championship has already provided an exhilarating showcase of high-caliber golf, and the final day promises even more drama and excitement.

Stay tuned as we await the final results and see who will emerge victorious in this thrilling battle for the Sanderson Farms Championship title.
