Sanderson Farms Championship Golf Predictions, Odds and PGA Tour Picks for Today, 10/02/25

With winning scores of -17 or better in the last 10 editions of the Sanderson Farms Championship, it’s clear low scores are required to triumph at the Country Club of Jackson and this could play into the hands of Michael Thorbjornsen.

The powerful American, who is third in total driving and fifth in distance on the PGA Tour, is 11th in birdie average and he made 22 birdies when finishing T8 on his debut in this event last year.

Sitting just outside the top 100 in the world, Thorbjornsen was tied for 13th on his last start at the Procore Championship, adding to his share of fourth at the Rocket Classic, T21 at the John Deere and T14 at the ISCO Championship over the last couple of months.

Boasting a greens in regulation ranking of fourth, Thorbjornsen should give himself plenty of looks at birdie in Mississippi as he aims to land his maiden professional title.

Rico Hoey, another player eager to break his PGA Tour duck, registered a top 10 at the Procore Championship and his accurate approach play should help him get in the mix this week.

The 30-year-old is unrivaled in both total driving and greens in regulation, while he is also 12th in strokes gained approach, and this could finally be the time he makes his breakthrough.
