Travelers Championship 2022: Tee Times, Prize Money, TV Coverage from Riviera Highlands as Rory McIlroy heads field

There may be a feeling of after the Lord Mayor’s show, but the Travelers Championship should not be looked at that way with six of the world’s top 10 teeing it up at TPC River Highlands.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler may be the one with the most regrets from last weekend’s US Open, having been beaten into a tie for second behind Matt Fitzpatrick, and he will look to shake it off in Hartford.
He will be joined in the field by Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay, Sam Burns, Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth. A show of strength from and for the PGA Tour as LIV Golf gets ready for its second event the following week – with Brooks Koepka reported to be the latest player to defect.

The PGA Tour will hope for another positive storyline, and there is the likelihood of some excellent scoring on one of the shortest courses on the circuit.

Depending on conditions, there are opportunities for the spectacular as Riviera Highlands is the only track to have seen a 58 posted – Jim Furyk in 2016.

To add to the playability, rain is forecast so players who have a penchant for birdies and better could be at an advantage over those who are inclined to produce steady golf.

Harris English is the defending champion, having beaten Kramer Hickok in a play-off 12 months ago. No player since Phil Mickelson in 2001 has gone back-to-back, and having played only a handful of times since the turn of the year on account of hip surgery, it would be a surprise to see him win this week.

Course: Riviera Highlands, Hartford

One of the shortest tracks on the PGA Tour, Riviera Highlands comes in at 6,852 yards. Low scoring is commonplace, with Dustin Johnson posting 19-under for victory in 2020 – with the winning score never dropping below 10-under since 1993.

Riviera Highlands has played host to the event – under various guises for sponsorship purposes – since 1984.

The 15th hole could play a pivotal role, being towards the end of the round and a driveable par four. But with water to the left and trouble in the form of sand, trees and thick rough to the right it is the ultimate risk-reward hole. Play safe or roll the dice?

Prize Money: Total fund of $8.3 million, with winner’s share being $1,494,000

Format: 72-hole matchplay. One-hole playoff, if required

Course records: 72 holes 258 Kenny Perry (2009). 18 holes 58 Jim Furyk (2016)

TV Coverage: The Travelers Championship is live on Sky Sports in the UK
