Fans can feel like the week after a major championship feels like a bit of a letdown. But these days, it doesn’t pay like one. This week’s Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut, is one of the PGA Tour’s designated events, meaning its $20 million purse matches directly the $20 million the USGA awarded at last week’s US Open.
The $20 million purse includes a $3.6 million payout to the winner. This is a massive upgrade from last year’s Travelers, which paid winner Xander Schauffele $1.494 million out of a total purse of $8.3 million. Fourth place this year will pay more ($980,000) than last year’s paid second place ($904,700). It’s another reminder of just how much money has doubled this season.
Keegan Bradley enters Sunday at 21-under, one ahead of Chez Reavie. Patrick Cantlay is 16 under, and three others (Rickie Fowler, Adam Scott and Denny McCarthy) are 15 under.
The final round begins at 1 p.m. ET on the Golf Channel, and CBS handles coverage from 3-6 p.m.
