Beau Hossler shot a 64 featuring an eagle at the par-5 5th and a single bogey at the par-3 10th to move to 15-under and take the lead at the Sanderson Farms Championship.
“It’s been really good. I’m 15-under par through two rounds, so yeah, I’m thrilled. Just feel like I made it relatively stress-free. Certainly a few holes I had to grind a little bit,” said Hossler.
“All in all, ball’s been in the fairway or close and on the green or close, and I’ve putted pretty well. I’ve read the greens pretty well from seven to 20 feet.
“Today I even got a long one to go, so very solid. Pleased. Just hoping to do two more.”
The American has recorded three runner-up finishes in 199 starts, most recently at the 2023 Zozo Championship, but has yet to win on the PGA Tour.
With back-to-back rounds of 65, four-time PGA Tour winner Daniel Berger of the USA is bogey-free through the opening 36-holes for the first time in his career and lies in second place at 14-under. He recorded his best opening 36-hole score on Tour since 2022 (130/Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches/finished 4th).
England’s David Skinns, who held the overnight lead by three shots, made four birdies and three bogeys for a 71 and moved down into a share o third place at 13-under.
Also tied in third place at Americans Jacob Bridgeman (66) and Keith Mitchell (64).
Defending champion Luke List (T41/-7) trails by eight in his bid to become the first player to successfully defend a Sanderson Farms Championship title; two players have won the event twice: Fred Funk (1998, 2004) and Brian Henninger (1994, 1999).
The 2024 Sanderson Farms Championship is the second event of the FedExCup Fall, a group of eight tournaments played after the Tour Championship that finalizes eligibility for the 2025 PGA TOUR Season.

Nos. 51-60 through the FedExCup Fall will qualify for two Signature Events in 2025 (AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, The Genesis Invitational).
Currently projected to move into Nos. 51-60: Beau Hossler (1st; from No. 87 to No. 56).
Currently projected to fall out of Nos. 51-60: Min Woo Lee (not in field; from No. 60 to No. 61).
The Top 125 will be exempt into all Full-Field events and The Players next season and Nos. 126-150 will earn full Korn Ferry Tour status and conditional status on Tour.
Currently projected to move into the Top 125: Daniel Berger (2nd; from No. 141 to No. 93), Hayden Springer (T6; from No. 127 to No. 116), Michael Thorbjornsen (T6; from No. 134 to No. 124), Vince Whaley (T22; from No. 126 to No. 125).
