Wednesday Preview - Zurich Classic of New Orleans

Honestly, ladies and gentlemen...this is a bit of an off week for the PGA Tour. No disrespect to New Orleans or the field playing this week, but we are two weeks removed from The Masters, and we have the Match Play and the Players Championship in back to back weeks following this event, so the Zurich Classic will be somewhat buried.

Course: TPC Louisiana, a 7,400 yard track. It is one of the easiest courses on Tour as long as there aren't any gale force winds like we saw on Sunday last year. Expect winning score to be above twenty under par.

Strength Of Field: B. I'm honestly surprised with how good the field is considering where it lies on the schedule. Justin Rose, Jason Day, and Dustin Johnson are the main headliners.

Extra Tidbits: Two years ago, Billy Horschel won his first PGA Tour event at this very tournament. He won the FedEx Cup last year, but enters this event slightly struggling...Monday qualifiers are Wes Homan, Chris Naegel, Zechariah Potter, and Michael Smith. Jonathan Byrd, Trevor Immelman, Tommy Gainey and Andrew Loupe received sponsor exemptions this week...The last player to win back to back New Orleans titles was Carlos Franco, who did it back in 1999 and 2000...David Toms will play this event for the 22nd time in his career. He won here in 2001.

Fantasy Four:

Sean O'Hair - Proved that he was back to being a contender after notching another top 10 last week. His missed cut at the Texas Open appears to be a case of O'Hair putting too much pressure on himself, as it was his only missed cut since the Sony Open. Currently 36th in the FedEx Cup. A win will be the ultimate ending of this come back story.

Dustin Johnson - Has never played on this course, but his form dictates a look regardless of where he plays. He got the start over Jason Day, who is likely more focused on the match play next week. Johnson has proven he can go low, which is a huge plus on this course.

Jason Bohn - Sleeper pick, but would have made my top four regardless. Former winner that hasn't missed a cut in 2015. Two of his last four events have resulted in a top 25. Familiarity may push him over the edge.

Justin Rose - This is the week to prove if his performance at Augusta National was more than just a player playing well at a course that suits his game. Top 10's in two of his last three starts in New Orleans, so there should be no excuses this week.

Last Weeks Team:

Jordan Spieth: T11

Charl Schwartzel: T55

Mark Wilson: CUT

Russell Henley: CUT
