Sanderson Farms Championship: Friday action called for darkness

It’s Day 2 of the 2019 Sanderson Farms Championship at the Country Club of Jackson in Jackson, Mississippi.

But like Thursday, the scheduled round was not completed.

The first round on Thursday was called at 7 p.m. ET due to “lingering storms in the area,” according to the PGA Tour.

At 8:03 p.m. ET on Friday, play was halted for darkness, ending a long day which included the completion of the first round and a good chunk of the second round.

Play will resume on Saturday at 8:30 a.m. ET.

There is a record $6.4 million up for grabs this year, an increase of $2 million from 2018. This year’s winner receives 500 FedExCup points as compared to the 300 Cameron Champ earned last time around. These changes are because the tournament is no longer an opposite-field event. It used to run up against the WGC-HSBC Champions tournament in China.
