Welcome to CaddyBytes.com’s Tournament's page for the 2013 Sanderson Farms Classic golf tournament.  The Sanderson Farms Classic has evolved over the years, first as the Deposit Guarantee, then the Southern Farm Bureau, then The Viking Classic, then the True South Classic and is now known as The Sanderson Farms Classic.  The tournament is back to where it used to be after a short stint in the Fall Series which is no more  - again here in 2013 as an official event opposite the British Open Championship.  

This tournament had it's roots to the professional golf circuit through the Deep Mid South region's old Magnolia Golf Classic golf tournament that was played in the 1970's and '80's opposite the Masters tournament every spring in April and held in Hattiesburg, MS.  

Since 1994 the tournament has been played in north suburban Jackson Mississippi with the Annandale Golf Club as the host golf tournament course.  Jack Nicklaus designed the Annandale golf club course in 1980.

The good news is the tournament is still alive and played opposite this year's British Open at Muirfield.  Bill Haas is the defending champion but he will be trying to win the British Open this week at Royal St. Georges.

There have been some notable past champions of the Deposit Guarantee, Southern Farm Bureau, now Viking Classic including Fred Funk, Billy Ray Brown, Ed Dougherty, John Huston, and in more recent years Luke Donald, D.J. Trahan, and Chad Campbell, with Will Mackenzie defending here after winning in 2008 and the washout of 2009, Bill Haas winning it in 2010, Chris Kirk in 2011 with Scott Stallings winning the event in 2012.
