Was the new team format a success at the Zurich?

Haven't heard much. Curious if it was more fun than normal for the fans. Also curious if the pros liked the format?

Best field the tournament has had. Record crowds. All the pros talking about how much fun they had.
I'd say yes.

I didn't particularly like the alternate shot, but best ball was fun to watch.

Successful without a doubt, but was it a success because it was such a change of pace? Or was it a success because people really can focus in on team play? No idea, but the Zurich will go down as a top 10 tournament this year in terms of exposure and thats with the terrible rain.

I liked it.
The ONLY thing that I think you could say "sucked" was that the three best teams, in my opinion, all missed the cut.
Day/Fowler
Stenson/Rose
Berger/Pieters
But obviously, the tournament can't control who plays well.

How did they determine the teams?

Attracted a great field.

I enjoyed it. It would have been nice if the playoff alternated between best ball & alternate shot.

Format was a success, for the players and spectators. It could be a must play for all the top players if they move it away from the TPC

I planned to attend the tournament Friday afternoon and Saturday. Work issues kept me from that.
Was able to watch a ton of the tournament on PGA Tour Live and CBS - I LOVED the format as a TV viewing fan. It was a great change of pace and very entertaining. I will make it to the tournament next year.
It seemed like a perfect fit for New Orleans - the players seemed more laid back and relaxed....but showed some passion and emotion.

The tournament was a ton of fun on Saturday. 18 got pretty rowdy as the final groups came in. A good friend of mine plays on the tour and said everyone playing was enjoying themselves.

the field will be even better next year

Not a huge golf guy, so this may come off as dumb, but this tournament in no way effects the standings and does not serve as a qualifying event for other, larger events, correct?

It was a blast, too. Thought it was such a cool tourney to attend.
