RESULTS TRAVELERS CHAMPIONSHIP JUNE 22 T0 25, 2023
This is the 36th of 44 tournaments before the 3 tour Championship events from 8/19 to 8/27.
With the exception of the Scottish Open, 7/13 to 7/16 and The OPEN from 7/20 to 7/23, the other 6 are secondary events and may be contested with only a few top 25 players. However they may draw some top players who are trying to break into the top 70 for the championship.
ROUND 1
#1 Danny McCarthy(60/1)-10 60 Ten birdies on his first 15 holes.
#2 Keegan Bradley(90/1)-8 62 birdies on his first 5 holes, 1 bogie. Should have been on LS list.
#2 Adam Scott(80/1)-8 62 Finished with eagle on 17 and birdie on 18. He has had a great year.
#4 Scottie Scheffler(6/1)-7 63 Seven birdies 0 bogies. If he avoids that 1 bad RD, he wins.
#5 Shane Lowry(80/1)-6 64 Six birdies 0 bogies. I would LOVE to see this guy win.
#5 Che Reavie(225)-6 64 Six birdies 0 bogies. I don’t think he will be in top 10.
#5 Eric Cole(150/1)-6 64 This guy is amazing. 34 yr old rookie and is usually in the hunt.
#8 Patrick Cantlay(9/1)-5 65 Bogied 18, and seems to have too many mental lapses.
