Latest News About Zurich Classic

Here’s the latest I can share about the Zurich Classic based on recent publicly reported notes up to now.

• The Zurich Classic of New Orleans is PGA Tour’s only team-format event, featuring two-man teams in alternate-shot and best-ball formats across four rounds at TPC Louisiana. This format has drawn notable pairings and strong buzz since its inception in the 1990s, with Cantlay/Schauffele and McIlroy/Lowry among the high-profile teams in past editions.[3][6]

• For the 2026 edition, early coverage highlighted that several top teams and contenders would be in play, with odds and predictions focusing on established duos and teams building chemistry from prior years. As with any year, changes to pairings or field composition are common as players confirm or adjust their schedules.[2]

• In recent years, the leaderboard and results can shift quickly due to the alternating formats, making week-to-week previews and live updates especially valuable for predicting who will contend through the weekend. For the 2026 tournament, you can expect similar dynamics, with teams adapting to the course conditions and weather in New Orleans.[6][2]
