After a thrilling Ryder Cup, the PGA Tour is back this week with the Sanderson Farms Championship. Steve Rawlings' provides an in-depth preview of the tournament at the Country Club of Jackson in Mississippi. 

Below you can read the form stats on the players taking part. First, we pick out three players who are in great current form and a further trio who have shown an aptitude for the course.

Sanderson Farms Championship 2025 - Three contenders based on current form

Akshay Bhatia 20/121.00

Bhatia is the pre-tournament favourite at Jackson this week and that's based on current form. The American finished tied-11th last time out at the Procore Championship and came 13th in his prior appearance at the Tour Championship. After a couple of weeks, he should be refreshed and raring to go.  

Min Woo Lee 25/126.00

Min Woo Lee's appearances have been thin on the ground in the past few months but they have not been short on quality. The Australian finished fifth last time out and 11th the week before, so if he continues that momentum in Jackson, he will be a contender to add to his sole career title so far.

Rasmus Hojgaard 28/129.00

Hojgaard missed in the BMW Championship last time out but that performane is an anomaly when it comes to his recent form. Prior to that disappointment at Wentworth, the Dane tied for second at the OMEGA European Masters just a fortnight after doing the same at the Danish Championship.


Sanderson Farms Championship 2025 - Three contenders based on course form

Mackenzie Hughes 35/136.00

Of those playing at the Country Club of Jackson this week, Mackenzie Hughes boasts the best course form. The Canadian averages 68.29 across his 14 rounds over the past six years at this week's venue. What's more Hughes, finished tied for seventh at the Procore three weeks ago so brings decent current form to Mississippi. Could these factors be a winning combination? At 35/136.00 it is worth a shot. 

Henrik Norlander 90/191.00

Not far behind Hughes, when it comes to averages, is Norlander. He averages 68.68 at this week's venue, over 22 rounds, and yet he is a considerably longer 90/191.00 in the tournament winner market. He missed the cut at the Procore, and his best recent performance was finishing tied for 62nd at the Wynhdham Championships, but the Sweded clearly loves playing at Jackson.

Alex Smalley 35/136.00

Alex Smalley is another one who is right up there when it comes to course form. He averages 68.71 from 14 rounds. The American failed to make the cut at either the Procore or the Wyndham, so needs to raise his game. He finished 28th, however, at this year's US PGA Championship and tied fifh the week before at the Myrtle Beach Classic. Hailing from North Carolina, Smalley may relish the chance to rediscover his best form in the south this week.
