Logan Ready To Make PGA Tour Debut
October 02, 2024 | Men's Golf
JACKSON, Miss. – Mississippi State alumnus Hunter Logan will make his PGA Tour debut on Thursday morning at the Sanderson Farms Championship in Jackson, Mississippi. Logan is scheduled to tee off at 8:55 a.m. CT on Thursday and 1:40 p.m. on Friday.
Â
Logan earned a sponsor's exemption into the event. His former teammate Ford Clegg had a sponsor's exemption into the 2023 edition of the tournament and made the cut in his PGA Tour debut after carding a 7-under 65 in the second round on the back of an even-par first day.
Â
Logan led the Bulldogs with a 71.06 stroke average last year in his final season. That average ranked third in program history, and he posted a career-high-tying 21 par or better rounds. He finished his career with 74 par or better rounds and 33 rounds in the 60s, both of which are second in program history. His 15 rounds in the 60s in 2023-24 came one shy of the program's single-season record set by Alex Rocha in 1999-00.
Â
"I am so excited for Hunter and the opportunity he has to make his PGA Tour debut in his home state of Mississippi," head coach Dusty Smith said. "Hunter was a great player for us but an even better person. I consider myself so lucky to have had the opportunity to coach him. He is a Bulldog through and through, and I can't wait to watch him live out his dream this week."
Â
The Steens, Mississippi, native was tabbed a PING All-Region performer by the Golf Coaches Association of America in May. He collected three top-five finishes in 2023-24, including his first career individual victory. At one point, he ranked as high as No. 35 in the PGA Tour University rankings.
Â
Logan will be joined at the event by fellow MSU alum Chad Ramey. Ramey has one career PGA Tour victory at the 2022 Corales Puntacana Championship where he shot 17-under. Ramey has made 12 cuts in 23 events this season. He finished tied for 13th at the Barracuda Championship in July and lost a playoff hole with his partner for the championship at the foursomes alternate shot Zurich Classic of New Orleans. He will tee off at 12:34 p.m. on Thursday and 7:49 a.m. on Friday.
Â
Coverage on Thursday will be available on ESPN+ from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m. at which point the broadcast will move to the GOLF Channel until 6 p.m. Friday will follow the same broadcast schedule, except coverage will continue until 6:30 p.m.
