Zurich has extended its sponsorship of its PGA tournament until 2030.

That is big for New Orleans

That’s great news for the event. It’s become really popular for the area.

Was worried with all the uncertainty surrounding professional golf, the Zurich might pull the plug on spending a ton of money.

Zurich is a great sponsor maybe now they can work to make it an elevated event

Unfortunately it will never get elevated in its current format. I'd keep the current format, I think that attracts some big names who wouldn't play if it were a regular event

I don’t think it even needs to become an elevated event. What hurts the zurich more than anything is the RBC being elevated a week before. Going directly from the masters into an elevated event kills the zurich as it makes it a natural rest week for the big names.

The tour really needs to consider moving the RBC. Having an elevated event directly after the masters makes no sense to me.

I think the players themselves like the RBC the week after. It’s a resort town that’s close to Augusta. Many treat it as a family vacation and recoup session after the masters

At least we get LIV Nola the next 3 years too, so we get to see some more big names

It is good to have a long term sponsor in this environment as a lot ot stops on the Tour have struggled to maintain their sponsor. Agree it probably won’t be an elevated event but the team aspect keeps it interesting
