True South Classic, Professional golf tournament at Country Club, Jackson, United States.
The True South Classic is a professional golf tournament held at the Country Club of Jackson in Mississippi. The competition takes place over multiple days on an 18-hole course where top professional golfers compete against each other.
The tournament began in 1968 at a different location under the name Magnolia Classic and relocated to Jackson in 2014, taking on the Sanderson Farms Championship name. It gained official PGA Tour status in 2019.
Century Club Charities organizes this event to support local charitable organizations throughout Mississippi. Spectators attending the tournament participate in a gathering that combines professional golf with community giving.
The tournament takes place each year from late September through early October, with spectators able to explore different areas around the course. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended since the venue is large and requires moving between viewing locations.
With its recent PGA Tour status, this competition belongs to a smaller group of tournaments that have climbed into professional golf's top tier in recent years. The elevation has made it more appealing to the world's best players and draws greater attention to the event.
