News
Sunday at Augusta
Through fifty-four holes the Masters has lived up to its pre-tournament hype. Despite high winds after a delayed start, Thursday produced some low scores. With 40-50 mph wind gusts causing sand storms at the greens, Friday had the highest average score in Masters history. We saw 48 year old Tiger Woods struggle through 23 holes on Friday to comfortably make the cut (+6) with a one over 145 for the first two rounds. Past Champions Vijay SIngh, 61 and Jose Maria Olazábal, 58 both played their way to weekend tee times.
Two days of play wasn’t without controversy. Friday’s weather led to 6 hour rounds as the grounds crew had to repeatedly clear sand from the putting surfaces. Defending Champion Jon Rahm, who would make the cut at 5 over, walked off 18 on Friday and questioned why they had to play in such conditions. Former Ryder Cup Captain and “star” of Netflix’s “Full Swing” Zach Johnson, after tapping in for a triple bogey, telling fans who clapped, “F_ck off.” Englishman Tyrrell Hatton, never one to shy away from expressing his emotions both complained about the slow play and spit on the green after missing a putt.
And of course we shall never forget Jason “The Marlboro Man” Day’s choice of apparel on Thursday and Friday morning.
Saturday saw fantastic drama, especially on the back nine. The lead changed hands throughout the afternoon. World #1 Scottie Scheffler birdied 18 to take the 54 hold lead at 7 under, one better than Colin Morikawa (-6) who played mistake free on the back parring each hole. Max Homa (-5) and Ludvig Ãberg (-4) round out the top 4. Bryson DeChambeau (-3) most likely saw his chance of winning disappear on 15 when after missing right on the par 5 15th after going for the green in two, promptly chunked his wedge into the water and had to settle for a double bogey 7. After following the double with a bogey on 16 DeChambeau drove into the woods on 18, pitched out and then hit the shot of the tournament, holing out from the fairway for a closing birdie.
There are plenty of stories to unfold this afternoon. Will Scheffler’s wife go into labor forcing him to walk off the course with a chance to win another green jacket? Can Morikawa win his third major and find himself only needing to win the US Open at Pinehurst in June to complete the career grand slam? If he were to pull off both Collin will have won all four majors in 19 career starts. Two less than Tiger Woods. Will Max Homa, who has not made a birdie in 32 holes, somehow walk away with his first career major? No Masters Champion has started outside the top five since Sir Nick Faldo’s win over a reeling Greg Norman in 1996. Will this be the year?
We get to enjoy another 18 holes of drama this afternoon. Sit back, relax and enjoy the show!

Hello, everyone! Kelly Hodgeson here, your go-to for all things golf betting.

Let’s talk about Will Gordon. Despite the odds sitting at +30000, there’s a potential goldmine if he pulls through with a win. A modest $10 bet could turn into $3,010! And if you’re looking for something a bit safer, his top 10 finish at +1800 could return $190 on that same $10. It’s all about finding those hidden gems.
Now, onto the stars of the show—Tom Kim is back, aiming for a spectacular three-peat with odds of 12-1. His performance at the Presidents Cup has everyone buzzing, and rightfully so. Other big names to watch include Davis Thompson and Taylor Pendrith, both with solid 25-1 odds. These players have shown they can handle the pressure, making this tournament anyone’s game.
At Spreads, we made sure even the casual bettor felt like a VIP, and that’s exactly what I’m bringing to Clickit Golf. Whether you’re betting big or just here for the thrill, I’m here to make sure you’re getting the VIP treatment.

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.
