The Zurich Classic occupies a unique spot on the PGA Tour schedule. It’s the only team event of the year, and that means there are a couple of specifics that make it different to individual medal play.
While the winning team is still entitled to PGA Tour exemptions and FedEx points, there are no world-ranking points awarded at this tournament. Prize money is also slightly more complicated, with the winning team sharing the money generally earmarked for first and second place, the second-place team splitting the money for third and fourth place, and so on.
This week, there’s an $8.9 million purse up for grabs, with $1.268 million going to each player on the winning team. The drop-off to second is pretty steep, with $525,100 for each player on the runner-up team. (Compare that to last week’s Signature Event purse in Hilton Head, where every player in the top 10 make $541,000 or more.)
To clear six figures in New Orleans this week, players will have to finish in the top 11.
