Travelers Championship Tips

Scottie Scheffler is the standout favorite due to his unmatched consistency tee-to-green and his ability to contend every week on PGA Tour setups. Even when his putting is average, he still finishes near the top. If the putter heats up, he is extremely difficult to beat.

Tommy Fleetwood is a high-floor contender whose strength lies in precision ball-striking and consistent scoring rather than explosive variance. His ability to stay in contention through controlled, mistake-free golf makes him a realistic winner in fields where others fluctuate. If putting performance stabilizes over four rounds, his profile is strong enough to convert into a breakthrough win.

Xander had a chance at winning last weekend but could not put together a solid Sunday. I look for him to finish much stronger.

Ludvig Åberg represents one of the highest-upside win candidates in the field due to elite driving and rapidly developing iron play. His ceiling is already at tournament-winning level, but the main question remains whether he can maintain full four-round consistency under elite pressure. When his ball-striking is fully synchronized, he can overwhelm fields quickly.

Matt was OK last week. It was a very tough course, so I'm happy to move on from that and back him again this week to get back to winning ways.

Sam went really close in the US Open last week, just not managing to catch Wyndham Clark in the last round. He comes into this event in great form.

Cameron Young holds the unique distinction of shooting a 59 at this course in 2024, proving he can access a scoring gear few others can.

Justin Thomas has three consecutive top-10s at this venue, and his ability to shape shots both ways is essential for the tree-lined fairways of TPC River Highlands.

Si Woo Kim's precision off the tee and strong approach play fit the short-course demands, where driving distance is less critical than accuracy.

There are some great each way shots for this years 'Travelers' but AARON RAI at 50/1 looks a bit generous in my opinion , he's started the year really well with a win and still hanging around the top 20 in most events , it wont be long before he's picking up another big tournament

Ben Griffin didn't play to badly in the US Open in his most recent event, he showed better form in the latter part of the tournament. If anything, this tournament won't be quite as tough as last time so I'm not ruling out he can improve on his latest result.

Wyktor did not get a good start in the US Open, but he was in the mix in his previous event. On a course that should suit his game better than last time out, he can bounce back this week.

JUSTIN ROSE really works hard on his fitness and in recent years he's showing that he really does belong in the elite still, the Englishman played well again last week in the US Open before dropping back a little on the last day but all players struggled on that tough course , he's due another win shortly

Look no further for a very good each way bet on J T POSTON for a top 6 spot, he has recently hit his highest ever world ranking into the top 20 and is a regular ever week near top of leaderboards on PGA events

Brian Harman is the quintessential 'course horse,' having finished in the top-10 in five consecutive years at TPC River Highlands.

Alex will want to show his brother Matt he can beat him. This is a great lineup this week. Alex is playing great golf this season and he can have a big week around here.

After a very serious brain injury in the last couple of years GARY WOODLAND as just started hitting the ball as well and as far as anyone on tour, he really is a class act and wont be long before he's winning another big event with his undoubted talent

Finau has won six times on tour and has top-5 finishes in all majors, so he has good odds even if he has not peaked for a while now.

Played well at the U.S. Open bar round 3 and before that played three good rounds at the Canadian Open. Just needs to minimize the damage on his worst round.

McCarthy is yet to win on the PGA Tour but has two playoff runner-ups, nine top-5s and 29 top-10s, so has shown great consistency on tour.

With two tied fourths in his last four starts, he will be confident, showing good form. He will try to ignore the U.S. Open as a blip given the difficulty of the course.

Has 4 top-5s, including a PGA Tour win, and 8 top-10s, so may offer some value here at these odds.
