New Zealand’s Ryan Fox assisted his cause in retaining his PGA Tour status for 2025 when finishing in a share of 11th place at the Sanderson Farms Championship in Jackson Mississippi this morning.
Fox began his final round five shots behind the 54 hole leader, Keith Mitchell and began his chase with three birdies in his first four holes to move into 3rd place but the final 14 holes would prove frustrating for the 37-year-old Aucklander as he would play them in even par to finish with a round of 69 and five shots behind the playoff between Kevin Yu and Beau Hossler.
Fox improved seven spots in his FedEx Cup ranking to 102nd in what is his rookie PGA Tour season. With still six events remaining on the 2024 schedule he appears safe to make the top 125 and keep his full status.
The tournament was won by Chinese Taipei’s Kevin Yu who claimed his first PGA Tour title with a birdie at the first hole of the playoff to down Beau Hossler.
