After an extremely fun week at the Presidents Cup in Montreal, we are back to regular strike play with the Sanderson Farms Championship. Below, we will take a look at the Underdog Fantasy Pick ‘Em board ahead of the event. This is a golf course that is extremely benign and will yield itself to a ton of birdies. There is a path for both bombers and plotters to find their way to the top this week. What matters more than anything is how well these players hit their irons and roll the rock.

Sanderson Farms Championship Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Plays—October 3rd, 2024
Eric Cole Lower Than 69.5 Strokes
We are finally in a week in which Eric Cole is not a chalk monster. When that is the case, I love running him out. Cole is an extremely streaky golfer and he avoids mistakes. Luckily for him, there are not many mistakes to be made out here. With ease, he can shoot lower than this number and cash you an Underdog Fantasy Pick ‘Em Slip. He is a golfer who prides himself on approach and putting, which is exactly what needs to be done around the Country Club of Jackson.
Ben Griffin Higher Than 4.5 Birdies
In golf, sometimes you simply follow a flowchart. If you know me, you know that I am an advocate for playing Ben Griffin on Bermuda. He elevates his baseline on these surfaces tremendously and is always a contender in these weak field Bermuda events. In the Sanderson Farms Championship last year, he had the event in his grasp and let it go down the stretch. Look for Griffin to come out with a vengeance and roll a ton of birdies in round one of the 2024 Sanderson Farms Championship.
