The Zurich Classic at New Orleans is the PGA Tour’s first team tournament since the 1981 Walt Disney Classic.
With the new team format, a wager this week looks like a risky prop – then again when is it not?!
But as they say, gamblers gamble – and so the bookmakers the have set the odds on the two-man team event this week at TPC Louisiana.
Despite no historical data to go off of, the team of Jason Day and Rickie Fowler are slight favorites at 6-1, with the European duo of Justin Rose and Henrik Stenson checking in at 13/2.
Rounding out the top-5 are the Texas team of Ryan Palmer and Jordan Spieth (10-1); the American-German twosome of Daniel Berger and Thomas Pieters (14-1); and the South African duo of Branden Grace and Louis Oossthuizen (15-1).
