The PGA Tour returns to its regularly scheduled programming this week after an eventful Presidents Cup
After an exciting week at the 2022 Presidents Cup, the PGA Tour returns to its regular playing schedule. The 2022 Sanderson Farms Championship will return the PGA Tour to its normal slate and will feature a field conducive for an outside winner. Defending champion Sam Burns headlines the action as he looks to avoid the same fate as 2020 winner Sergio Garcia: a past champion to miss the cut in his title defense.
Garcia arrived in Jackson on the heels of an emotional 2021 Ryder Cup, and the parallels drawn to Burns and the Presidents Cup are apparent. While Burns may be reeling from Sunday's celebrations, recent Korn Ferry Tour graduates will be chomping at the bit. Led by Taylor Montgomery, a number of rookies plan to tee it up at the Country Club of Jackson and continue the quest to kick off their inaugural PGA Tour campaigns on the right foot.
Montgomery is fresh off a third-place finish at the Fortinet Championship and was one of three recent graduates to crack the top 10 in Napa. More of the same should be in store as both bombers and plodders have contended around this par 72 in the past.
