2015 PGA: Zurich Classic of New Orleans Preview & Betting Tips

2015 Zurich Classic of New Orleans - Betting Tips

Where: TPC Louisiana
When: Thursday, April 23 (First tee off 10:00pm AEST)
Purse: $6,900,000

The PGA Tour heads into alligator territory with TPC Louisiana hosting the Zurich Classic. Only three top 10 players will be making an appearance - Jason Day, Dustin Johnson and Justin Rose. We do have our eye on one of these players but keep in mind this course is known for first timers breaking through for their first win.

BIRDIE FEST!

TPC Louisiana seems like a walk in the park for the pros. Last year there were 10 holes that averaged under par and you can expect another very low winning score as the weather has softened the course.

Justin Rose is my pick of the favourites. His performance in the Masters was impressive keeping the young gun Jordan Speith very honest. Rose has a great record here. In the last three years he has finished T10, T15 and T8 with scores of 12 under or better.

BET ON: Justin Rose - $11 at Betfair

Other players trending towards a win…

Sean O Hair is knocking at the door. He has shown positive signs and last week he finished 6th with a final round of 64.

Morgan Hoffman had four rounds in the 60’s last week and also had a respectable Masters outing. Looks like he will be there abouts soon enough.

Troy Merritt is great value this week. He finished 3rd in the RBC Heritage last week which included an unbelievable second round 61. He has the ability to go low at TPC Louisiana as well, finishing 3rd in 2010 with 14 under par.
