Rory McIlroy is heading to the bayou.
The world No. 2 will team up with Shane Lowry at the 2024 Zurich Classic of New Orleans, April 25-28, and make his first appearance at the team event at TPC Louisiana in Avondale, Louisiana.
Lowry has played the Zurich on four separate occasions and missed the cut in 2013 and 2019. He finished T-28 in 2018 and 13th in 2022. So far this season Lowry has a pair of top-five finishes and has missed one cut in six starts. McIlroy’s best finish of the season on Tour was his T-19 at last week’s Players Championship, but he did claim the 2024 Hero Dubai Desert Classic on the DP World Tour back in January.
McIlroy and Lowry have been teammates on the last two Ryder Cups with Team Europe but have only played together once in a losing effort, 4 and 3, in 2021 to Tony Finau and Harris English in fourball.
