It feels like the perfect time for a trip to New Orleans. Exiting one of the most exciting masters ends up in history at a signature event (and play-off) at Hilton Head Island, now we are in a place and tour where we can leave and have good old-fashioned golf-fashioned entertainment in Big Easy.

it’s Zurich Classic of New OrleansAn event that has been regular on the tournament calendar for nearly 70 years. TPC Luiziana in Avondale, La., A Pete Dye design, has been the tournament site since 2005. In 2017, the format changed from a standard game event to a two -person team competition, and while the admission was not immediate, the tournament was embraced by players and fans.

From the betting point of view, I like to treat it as a “entertainment” event and remove the danger a little. It is quite difficult to choose an individual to win a golf tour. Now you unite two players together, two sets of skills together and two different game formats together – alternating each other day during four days – and it does for a much less final handicap.

There are a total of 160 players on the field, comprising 80 teams. The 33 best teams (and connections) will progress on the weekend after cutting with 36 holes. On Thursday and Saturday, the teams will play four balls, which means that each team member plays their ball and the lowest score of both is recorded as the team result for each hole. On Friday and Sunday, the game will be four, which is usually understood as an alternative shot. Foursomes is the much harder format of both. It is not uncommon for a team to shoot 10 under four balls and shoot even a day later on Foursomes.

Nothing really marked in terms of weather forecast in New Orleans still. Temperatures in the low by the mid-80s with winds everywhere 5-15 mph is what we are seeing on Thursday to Sunday.

TPC Luiziana is a 72 par which extends to just over 7,400 yards. The skill groups I looked at this week were pretty limited or simplified, if you want to get won: tee in green, strokes: access, clashes, birds or better won, par 4 marking (450-500 yards) and strokes: setting (Bermudagrass). Ideally, one would like to find a couple in which both players shine in all fields. I often like to look for teams that complement each other’s skill groups – one player makes A, B and C at a high level and the other player does very well D, E and F – in theory, making a very strong introduction.

But most of the work we are doing this week is quality and not quantitative. Team chemistry can also be important.

The tour has been won by favorites since late. In four of the last five editions, the chances of the winning team were 20-1 or less. Rory Mcilroy and Shane Lowry are protective champions – but they won in a play off over a long long time, Chad Ramey and Martin Trainer. If you look at the past tables, very long long pretend. So while we can be helped by the fact that the best players tend to win here, it is also true that many teams come out of nowhere to surprise.

We can also tell about interconnected courses this week as we always. With Luiziana TPC which is a color design, the shape in the color courses is a plus. Specifically, I looked at the stadium course, where most rounds are played in the American Express in La Quinta, Calif. I also considered Accent Golf Golf Narashino Country Club, home for Zozo Championship, PGA National (Classic), Detroit Golf Club (Rocket Mortgage Classic) and TPC Twin Host Cyton 3M Open.

We have successfully said the racing contestant gathering bar last week, but unfortunately we went the wrong direction with Daniel Berger, ending the third in Harbor Town and not the first. Personally, I am not playing this week’s elections for the usual Top-20 finish except for the full victory, but it depends on the individual. I would not say that it is a bad idea to play the choices for a top-20 end this week. Again, we are moving away from the danger for what can be a very nice but also very unpredictable golf tour.

Keith Mitchell & Jt Post (20-1)

This will be the first time these two players have ever joined for the event, but the two have had some success here in the past, mostly Mitchell with the latest and fourth place conclusions. Poston has lost only one cut throughout the season and comes to one end of the 11th place at Hilton Head. The last three beginnings of Mitchell were the 18th, 12th, and the competitor last week in Corales Puntacana. I mentioned the complimentary skills groups and I believe we have enough of her here with Mitchell being one of the best in the game outside Tee and posts who own the short magic game.

WynDham Clark & ​​Taylor Moore (22-1)

This is another pairing that is a young man, but also the one in which both players have had excellent success here in the past, collectively calculating the four ends of the Top-10. Their success in interconnected courses is also extraordinary, and I also think we get compliments with Moore and Clark’s compliments by being to his maximum and around the greens. Both players also make many birds. During the last 24 rounds, Clark ranks 17th in this field for birds or better acquired and Moore is sixth.

Ben Griffin & Andrew Novak (25-1)

One of our last election of the race was Novak. He did it again last week at RBC Heritage. Of course, the actual shape is extremely strong. Maybe having a man with an arm will help him cross the finish line. It has been a very good season so far for Griffin, which has Top-10 conclusions on our two interconnected courses, a stature in American Express and a fourth place in Cognant Classic. Once again, the complimentary skills groups are in play with Griffin being the extraordinary iron player (I 14th in this field for SG: Access the last 24 rounds) and Novak having the touch around green, ranking fourth in the field to clash.

Doug Ghim & Chan Ki (50-1)

This stayed abroad as a couple of top ball attackers who have been good at the event in the past and often fly under radar on week -old shifts, standards of shock games. It can be one of those long pairs that make noise. Ghim has especially had great success in the past in color patterns. During the last 24 rounds, Kim ranks 23rd in this field for birds or better acquired and Ghim is the 18th in the yard 450-500 par 4s and 11 in SG: Tee to Green.

Ryan Gerard & Danny Walker (60-1)

Gerard has been really fantastic in his PGA Tour’s novice year, having lost only one cut throughout the season and joining the two ends of Top-10 in its last three beginnings. Walker, another novice, turned his heads back in March to the players when he ended the sixth. Both players make birds in batches. During the last 24 rounds, Walker ranks fourth in this field for birds or better acquired and Gerard is 10th. They both reside in the Top-30 in this field for SG: Tee to Green. If a hot putter appears between two of them, this is another long entry that can be a factor.
