Seven former event winners and a quintet of major tournament champions will be among the 130 golfers in the field this week when the PGA Tour heads to the Magnolia State for the Sanderson Farms Championship in Jackson, Miss.The event, which is held at at Country Club of Jackson, is the fourth tournament in the PGA Tours wraparound schedule that bridges two years with 43 events as part of the 2016-17 PGA Tour Season.Last year, Peter Malnati shot a final round 5-under-par 67 to rally past a crowded leaderboard, finish at 18-under and win his first PGA Tour event while beating William McGirt and David Toms by one stroke. He was one shot behind going into the final round, but closed with five birdies over his last 12 holes.The rain-soaked tournament was forced to complete play on Monday. This year, the forecast is for warm and dry weather, which will create a different test and, likely, lower scores. Eleven of the past 15 Sanderson Farms Championships have been decided by either one stroke or in a playoff.The event (formerly called the Viking Classic, the True South Classic and the Southern Farm Bureau Classic, et al.) moved to the Country Club of Jackson in 2014 after being contested for 19 years at Annandale Country Club in Madison, Miss.In his win in 2015, Malnati blitzed the rain-softened putting surfaces by making the most feet of putts in any Tour event last season (495 feet, 7 inches over the four days) and the most putts of more than 10 feet in any tournament in 2015-16 (16). He outperformed the rest of the Sanderson Farms Championship field by plus-2.943 strokes per round.Ive heard that the rough will be thicker and longer this year and if the fairways are firm that will create a fun challenge, Malnati said. Im looking forward to that. This course has some of the best greens we putt on Tour.Patton Kizzire, who is also in the field, finished fourth here last year and is familiar with the course from his days playing at Auburn.Im excited about the weather this week, Kizzire said. Last year the weather was rough, but the course handled it well. The course is fun to play. Itll be a little different year, but I like the Country Club of Jackson.Kizzire ended up playing in three of the four majors, making the cut at the British Open and PGA Championship. He made the cut in 20 of his 27 events last season.You have to understand its a long year and keep doing you and see if you can do you better than anyone else, Kizzire said. If you play your own game and youre not really worrying about what everyone else is doing, you can stay patient.Other previous Sanderson Farms Championship winners in this years field are Nick Taylor (2014), Scott Stallings (2012), Chris Kirk (2011), Will MacKenzie (2008), D.J. Trahan (2006) and Heath Slocum (2005).The fields major championship winners are Lucas Glover (2009 U.S. Open), Geoff Ogilvy (2006 U.S. Open), David Toms (2001 PGA Championship), Retief Goosen (2001, 2004 U.S. Open) and Angel Cabrera (2007 U.S. Open, 2009 Masters).There are also five players in the field that are already in the top 30 in this years FedExCup standings: Kizzire (3), Cody Gribble (17), Chris Kirk (17), Mackenzie Hughes (28) and Whee Kim (28).Hydro Flask 32 Oz Wide Mouth Straw Lid .
