TPC Louisiana is another Pete Dye jam, and the course isn't especially tough, but it does have some great, challenging approach shots. Two formats this week, and they're very different. For alt shot, you want complementary players. That's not necessary in best ball.

Haotong Li and Jordan Smith should be a fun pairing and thrive in this environment.

Blades Brown has been great this year, and he's on a quest to a PGA Tour card that could buoy Luke Clanton.

AJ Ewart has done well in his rookie PGA Tour year, and Casey Jarvis has been fantastic on the DP World Tour.
