Given how winter has been in Connecticut, it may feel like we’ll never see grass again, as that foreign green substance lies buried deep under mounds and mounds of snow.
But, assuming the snow does finally melt, the Travelers Championship will return in June, and the reigning champion– someone who knows all about New England winters– will be back, too.
Two-time tournament champion Keegan Bradley will return to Cromwell this season looking to defend his title.
The 39-year-old, who was an all-state ski racer growing up in Vermont, will look to win New England’s PGA Tour event for the third time.
Bradley won the Travelers last year in dramatic fashion, making birdie on the final hole to overtake Tommy Fleetwood and win by one stroke at 15-under-par. He also broke the tournament record by finishing 22-under in 2023. He’s currently ranked No. 19 in the Official World Golf Rankings, and is coming off of a season in which he served as captain of the U.S. Ryder Cup team.
Bradley has eight career wins on tour. He’s made three starts so far this season.
