JACKSON, Miss.–Whether you love golf or not, you’re probably still a fan of seeing sick kids in Mississippi get better, and seeing Mississippi’s economy do better. Both are effects of having the Sanderson Far,s Gold Championship in Mississippi. The tournament officially starts today with practice rounds for the pros.
If you’re an average Joe, you can get in to watch, starting Thursday, and that’s where and how you can do the most good to help raise money for Friends of Children’s Hospital, which benefits Blair E. Batson.
