Scheffler Favored as Travelers Championship Field and Tee Times Are Finalized

Play starts Thursday at TPC River Highlands with Scottie Scheffler installed as the betting favorite.

Overview

  • The 72-player Travelers Championship is set for June 25–28 at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut, and the PGA Tour has published the full field and round-by-round tee times.
  • World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler opened as the clear market favorite at roughly +440, while Rory McIlroy has chosen to skip the event.
  • Defending champion Keegan Bradley returns to defend his title and U.S. Open winner Wyndham Clark is in the field but listed with much longer odds near +3500.
  • TPC River Highlands is a short par-70 (6,844 yards) where hitting greens and strong putting typically produce low scores, favoring accurate iron play over distance.
  • The Travelers is an elevated Signature Event with a $20 million purse that carries significant FedExCup points and heavy betting interest, including SportsLine’s 10,000-run simulations and promoted longshot parlay picks.
