Kevin Yu Wins Sanderson Farms Championship Playoff

Kevin Yu clinched his first PGA Tour victory at the 2024 Sanderson Farms Championship after outlasting Beau Hossler in a playoff. Yu birdied the 72nd hole to force the playoff and then secured the win with another birdie in sudden death, taking home $1.368 million and moving to 60th in the FedEx Cup standings. His parents, visiting from Taiwan, witnessed the victory, which Yu described as a dream come true. The tournament saw Keith Mitchell miss a crucial par putt on the last hole, preventing him from joining the playoff. Hossler, despite a strong performance, remains in search of his first tour win. This event is part of the FedEx Cup Fall series, with full PGA Tour status and entry into major events on the line.
