Zurich Classic 2017 Odds, Sleeper Picks & Bets for TPC Louisiana

This is the week where you find out if you're a betting degenerate or not. The new format of the Zurich Classic, which will now feature 80 two-player teams, has a chance to spark some excitement out of an otherwise stale tournament, but it's also going to make things extremely unpredictable and extremely difficult from a betting perspective.

But if you're brave enough, here's a look at the top of the odds table for TPC Louisiana, courtesy of 5Dimes. You can find the complete field here.

Jason Day & Rickie Fowler: 11/2

Justin Rose & Henrik Stenson: 6/1

Jordan Spieth & Ryan Palmer: 9/1

Daniel Berger & Thomas Pieters: 14/1

Branden Grace & Louis Oosthuizen: 16/1

J.B. Holmes & Bubba Watson: 18/1

Bud Cauley & Justin Thomas: 20/1

Kevin Chappell & Gary Woodland: 22/1

Hideki Matsuyama & Hideto Tanihara: 25/1

Patrick Reed & Patrick Cantlay: 30/1

Charley Hoffman and Nick Watney: 35/1

Keegan Bradley & Brenden Steele: 35/1

Luke Donald & Jamie Lovemark: 35/1

Seung-Yul Noh & Byeong Hun An: 40/1

Tony Finau & Daniel Summerhays: 40/1

Russell Henley & Blayne Barber: 45/1

Jamie Donaldson & Tyrrell Hatton: 50/1

Russell Knox & Kevin Streelman: 50/1

Kevin Kisner & Scott Brown: 50/1

Harris English & Hudson Swafford: 55/1

Robert Garrigus & William McGirt: 60/1

Jerry Kelly & Steve Stricker: 65/1

Brooks Koepka & Chase Koepka: 66/1

Jason Dufner & Patton Kizzire: 66/1

Patrick Rodgers & Cameron Tringale: 66/1

Graham DeLaet & David Hearn: 70/1

Wesley Bryan & Ryan Blaum: 70/1

Sung Kang & Si Woo Kim: 70/1

To be clear here, I'm staying far away from this one. This is the first time in about 36 years an official PGA Tour event has been a team format, so it's almost impossible to know how this thing will shake out. Moreover, outside the top handful of teams, you can find significant flaws in most of the pairings. It should be an entertaining tournament, but it just feels like a big crap-shoot.

Alas, here we are. Though I'm not going to be making any bets this week, I'm still here to help for those who are. So, if you're ready to quell that betting thirst, you can click through the gallery for some of this week's best value picks and sleepers to consider. (Getty)
