Karl Vilips Steps Up To Zurich Classic Of New Orleans
Karl Vilips won the Puerto Rico Open in 2025. The Australian golfer faces a step up in competition at the Zurich Classic this week. Vilips has not fared well since winning down in Puerto Rico in March. He missed three straight cuts and then ended up outside the Top 50 at the RBC Heritage last week. Vilips went to Stanford University with Michael Thorbjornsen so the partnership goes back a bit. Anyway, last week's 71-74 causes some considerable concern for what is to come. A golfer must make putts in New Orleans but be accurate with the driver. A 58% driver accuracy ranks 115th and Vilips averages 30 putts per final round which is a significant hurdle despite decent +4000 odds for him and Thorbjornsen.
