The angular distribution in photon-jet production in pbar{p} -> gamma jet X is studied within a generalized factorization scheme taking into account the transverse momentum of the partons in the initial hadrons. Within this scheme an anomalously larg
e cos(2phi) asymmetry observed in the Drell-Yan process could be attributed to the T-odd, spin and transverse momentum dependent parton distribution function h_1^{perp q}(x, p_{perp}^2). The same function is expected to produce a cos(2phi) asymmetry in the photon-jet production cross section. This particular azimuthal asymmetry is estimated to be smaller than the Drell-Yan asymmetry but still of considerable size for Tevatron kinematics, offering a new possibility to study T-odd effects at the Tevatron.
