CROMWELL, Conn. — No one who is involved with the Travelers Championship or who goes to TPC River Highlands will deny that the game’s best golfers eat it up every year.
It is less than 6,900 yards in length, and this year after about a half-inch of rain fell on the course Wednesday, so conditions have been soft.
Xander Schauffele, Kevin Kisner, Patrick Cantlay and other players at the top of the leaderboard have looked comfortable most of the week, but as Rory McIlroy proved on the 12th and 15th holes Friday, big numbers can quickly appear on a player’s scorecard if he is not careful.
