2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans Top Pick

Zalatoris didn’t play great at the RBC Heritage. However, he did score a top fifty finish, signing his card for a tie at forty-four. Before the RBC, Will was fantastic at the Masters, finishing ninth.

Theegala has climbed to the world’s twelfth ranked golfer. That’s what happens when you finish sixth at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, ninth at The Players Championship, and second at the RBC Heritage. Sahith also finished in the top fifty at the Masters, crossing the line in forty-fifth place.

The two are playing well enough to leapfrog McIlroy and Lowry and Cantlay and Schauffele. Taking a swing on Zalatoris and Theegala at +1100 odds makes sense.

2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans Second Pick

Xander Schauffele is playing lights out with a second at The Players, a fifth at the Valspar and an eighth at The Masters. The eighteenth at the RBC Heritage also wasn’t bad.

Patrick Cantlay followed up the twenty-second at The Masters with a third at the RBC Heritage. For sure, Cantlay and Schauffele can win the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. But the pair should have won this last year and didn’t. At the odds, Patrick and Xander are tough to put on top.

2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans Third Pick

Collin Morikawa’s form has turned positive. After a horrific seventy-fifth place finish at the Valspar, Morikawa finished third at The Masters, shooting a 71-70-69-74. He was in the running for the green jacket until Sunday’s round.

Kurt Kitayama’s worse finish in his last four tournaments played is a thirty-sixth at the Houston Open. Kitayama finished thirty-fifth at The Masters. In a team event, Kitayama and Morikawa should play great together. Also, the odds are nice. So if you’re looking for a better payout than the top team on this list, consider backing Collin and Kurt.

2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans Underdog Pick

This is the type of tournament that could flatter Mitchell’s skills. Keith Mitchell finished seventeenth at the Valspar and fourteenth at the Valero Texas Open.

Teammate Joel Dahmen missed the cut at the Houston Open and the Valero Texas Open. Dahmen also finished sixty-fifth at the Corales Puntacana Championship. But Dahmen could do well this week because this is a team event. If he picks up his game, and Mitchell is solid, which Keith should be, who knows? Maybe the pair of Dahmen and Mitchell get it done at massive odds.
