Zurich Classic of New Orleans 2026: Full field, format and how to watch

The Zurich Classic of New Orleans begins Thursday, April 23, at TPC Louisiana.

The tournament is made up of 74 two-man teams competing for a $9.5 million purse.

The solo stop in Cajun Country is also the only FedExCup event on the PGA Tour schedule that showcases teams competing, rather than individuals. While the tournament has been played since 1958, it has only been a team event since 2017.

Ben Griffin and Andrew Novak were crowned Zurich Classic champions last year, capturing their first PGA Tour wins in the process.

Griffin and Novak look to defend their title against a competitive field that includes 2024 winner Shane Lowry. This time around Lowry is without his friend and two-time Masters champion Rory McIlroy.

Without McIlroy in the field this year, Lowry is teaming up with Brooks Koepka.

The teams will play two rounds of fourballs (better ball) on Thursday and Saturday and two rounds of foursomes (alternate shot) on Friday and Sunday.

Here’s a look at the full field:
