2015 Zurich Classic of New Orleans Sleeper Picks and Predictions

Where: TPC Louisiana, Avondale

When: April 23-26, 2015

Keegan Bradley

[sc:Golf240banner ]Keegan Bradley came close to winning the Zurich Classic last year, finishing in a tie for eighth with a 13-under-par total of 275. It was a disappointing result for Bradley who headed into the final round just two strokes back of eventual champion Seung-yul Noh. He imploded, however, in the final round, shooting a 3-over-par 75 with a triple bogey in the sixth hole totally dropping him out of contention.

Bradley will look to make amends this year and with the form that he is in right now, the thought of that happening isn’t totally far-fetched. He already has two top-five finishes this year, including a fifth-place finish at the Shell Houston Open earlier this month. Look for Bradley to be in the hunt come Sunday afternoon.

Morgan Hoffman

One golfer who’s playing some solid golf recently is Morgan Hoffman. He has two top-10s in his last three starts including a ninth-place finish at Harbour Town last week where he recorded four rounds in the sub-70s. He is 2-for-2 here at TPC Louisiana with his best finish coming in 2013 where he ended up tied for 21st.

Sean O’Hair

Another player who’s feeling confident with his game right now is Sean O’ Hair. The 32-year-old’s renaissance continued last week at the RBC Heritage tournament, finishing solo sixth at Harbour Town with a 13-under-par total of 271. Key to his success last week was his play with the par-4s where he led the entire field in scoring.

That will come in handy in tackling Pete Dye’s unique set-up at TPC Louisiana. Best known for its sectioned greens with serious undulations, the golf course puts a premium on precise approach shots. If O’Hair can execute just like he did a week ago at Harbour Town, chances are he will be in the running for the title once again.

Troy Merritt

One golfer who loves playing here at TPC Louisiana is Troy Merritt. He finished solo third here in 2010 and looks primed to make another run at the title this week with the great form that he has right now.

He led after 36 and 54 holes last week at Harbour Town before settling for a third-place finish on Sunday. This follows his impressive performance at the Valspar where he finished in sixth place. Expect Merritt to be in contention come the back nine on Sunday afternoon.
