2021 Zurich Classic - no players committed yet?

I know Rahm & Palmer will be back to defend. Obviously the Zurich sponsored golfers will be there (Morikowa, Rose and Billy Ho). Max Homa said Talor Gooch will be his partner. Wouldn't be surprised to see some potential Ryder Cup partners play to get some practice together.

I would think most players used this week to eat like kings, enjoy good music, gamble, soak in the most historic city in the Union, spend romantic time with a loved one, etc. etc.

All of that in NO is dead when it is an outsider looking in.

Most players go there to try to win a golf tournament as is their job. Maybe a couple of the big names that are there for sponsorship obligations, but it's a great opportunity for most of the players as it's a pretty weak field.

They're going to treat it like they would every other tournament, and the state of the "openness" of the city is going to have nothing to do with who's in the field.

PGA puts out the commitment list on the Friday of the RBC Heritage.

Burns is playing with Horschel.

That's right, I forgot about this. Horschel said this on the Golf Sub Par podcast interview a month or two ago. They got some nice digs in about the whole shoe throw that cost the Gators the game.

Burns better bring his earplugs..

You and Shelbi Latino should play

Anyone know when the final lineup is posted for the Zurich? The Team List was last updated on 4/9 on their website, decent amount of teams posted.

No Patrick Reed who usually plays in it. No Justin Rose who is a Zurich ambassador. No Spieth who I remember following a couple years ago. And also Pat Perez said he was teaming up with Joel Dahmen on the Foreplay Podcast. No Brooks/Chase Koepka team yet. Doesn’t Jason Day usually play in it? What about Sergio?

Good lineup so far though!
