Why we truly love golf
Golf is a game of risk management and resilience. That resonates in our business. In fact, that resonates for a lot of the businesses we insure. That’s why we are a proud supporter of the PGA TOUR. We became the title sponsor of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in 2005, the year of Hurricane Katrina. In 2006, the Zurich Classic became the first major sporting event to return to New Orleans after the storm. That’s teamwork, determination and agility at work. In short, that’s resilience.

A different spin
Just as we strive to innovate for our customers, the Zurich Classic differentiates with a two-man team format, featuring two rounds each of Foursome and Four-Ball competition. The Zurich Classic is the only FedExCup team event on the PGA TOUR.
