2022 Travelers Championship
US PGA Tour
TPC River Highlands
Cromwell, Connecticut, USA
23-26 June 2022
Harris English will be eager to become the second golfer to win back to back
Travelers Championship titles when he competes in this year's event.
American legend Phil Mickelson remains the only golfer to have won this tournament back to back having done so between 2001 and 2002.
His countryman English won the 2021 Travelers Championship with a birdie on the eighth playoff hole against Kramer Hickok and it was the second-longest playoff in PGA Tour history.

The Georgia-born golfer has won four PGA Tour tournaments since he made his professional debut in 2011 when he took part in the Nationwide Tour's Soboba Golf Classic.
English secured his first victory in 2013, at the FedEx St. Jude Classic and later in the year, he won for the second time at the OHL Classic at Mayakoba.
A final round 65 took the former University of Georgia student to a four-stroke win over Brian Stuard at the OHL Classic which is now known as The World Wide Technology Championship.
English finished 61st at the recent US Open and he will now be returning to the TPC River Highlands where he has some good memories from last year.

“This was awesome. The fans were keeping us in it, getting the juice from them,” English said after winning last year's Travellers Championship.
“That’s been really all afternoon. Hats off to Kramer. What a competitor. We were both grinding. That’s what it was all about. We were grinding and trying our hardest.
“It was tough. I mean, my hamstrings were getting tired, and my back was getting tired. I know Kramer was probably feeling the same thing. You’ve got to lock in and make every shot the most important. It’s hard.”
Billy Casper is the most decorated golfer in the history of the Travelers Championship having won it a record four times in 1963, 1965, 1968 and 1973.
