2021 Zurich Classic of New Orleans Tourney Preview

The 2021 Zurich Classic is a bit of a different format than most PGA Tournaments. The PGA Tour has made this tournament a two-man team format which will feature two rounds each of Foursome and Four-Ball competition. By all accounts the new format is liked by the players and is probably here to stay. Fantasy golfers unfortunately got locked out of the fun as the format doesn't allow for any type of DFS games but this may be the time to look at betting on golf as this tournament lends itself to betting and prop betting quite well.
