We’re one day away from the Zurich Classic, and this is my final betting card before things tee off in New Orleans. The PGA TOUR’s only team event always brings a different feel, with two-man squads needing both chemistry and strategy to win.
TPC Louisiana sets up for low scoring in best ball, while alternate shot puts pressure on precision and trust. With winning scores often pushing 25-under or better, finding the right pairings is everything. These five best bets target teams built to take advantage of both formats and cash this week.

Tony Finau/Max Greyserman Top-20 Finish (-105)
Distance and birdie-making ability give Finau and Greyserman a solid path to a top 20 at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Greyserman has already shown he can succeed in this format, while Finau adds experience and strong approach play. If they click, this duo has the scoring upside to hang around the leaderboard all weekend.
Max McGreevy/Kevin Roy Top-10 Finish (+240)
A balanced skill set and steady form make McGreevy and Roy an intriguing value play at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. McGreevy’s ball-striking pairs nicely with Roy’s short game, which is key in this format. Both have experience at TPC Louisiana and come in playing consistent golf, giving them a solid floor with enough upside to push for a top-10 finish.
Michael Thorbjornsen/Karl Vilips Top-5 Finish (+325)
Strong chemistry and proven results make Thorbjornsen and Vilips an appealing option at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The former Stanford teammates finished T4 here last year and were close to winning. Thorbjornsen’s power off the tee pairs nicely with Vilips’ putting, giving them a balanced game and the scoring ability to push for another top finish.
Aaron Rai/Sahith Theegala to Win (+2,150)
A strong blend of accuracy and scoring ability makes Rai and Theegala an appealing option at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Rai’s precision off the tee keeps them out of trouble, while Theegala’s creativity around the greens adds birdie upside. With prior experience together and a field that isn’t as deep, this duo has a real chance to contend.
Kevin Streelman/Joel Dahmen to Win (+10,000)
Accuracy and experience make Streelman and Dahmen a sneaky long shot at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Both keep the ball in play, which is key in alternate shot, and Dahmen has been in solid form this season. Add in Streelman’s putting, and this duo has the kind of steady game that can surprise at big odds.
