2024 Travelers Championship
PGA Tour
TPC at River Highlands
Cromwell, Connecticut, USA
20-23 June 2024
Scottie Scheffler will be among the favourites to win the Travelers Championship after missing out on the US Open title.
What to know about Scheffler
The American star became the fifth world number one player to win the Masters, joining Ian Woosnam (1991), Fred Couples (1992), Tiger Woods (2001, 2002) and Dustin Johnson (2020).
Scheffler's 2022 victory at Augusta National Golf Club came two weeks after he ascended to the number spot one with his win in the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, where he defeated Kevin Kisner in the final.
Latest News
The Dallas, Texas-born golfer endured a disappointing display at the US Open as he finished 41st and it is his worst performance in the 2024 PGA Tour season.
However, Scheffler is still placed at the top of the Official World Golf Rankings and has held that ranking for over 90 weeks.
Why Scheffler is among the favourites
The 2023 Vardon Trophy winner has won three of the last six PGA Tour tournaments he has taken part in - clinching the Memorial, Masters Tournament and RBC Heritage titles.
An underwhelming performance at the US Open should see Scheffler bring his A game to the Travelers Championship in order to bounce back to winning ways.
Quotes
