Which Connecticut course hosts the Travelers Championship?

The story behind the answer

TPC River Highlands hosts the Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Connecticut. The course has been the tournament’s home since 1984, when the event was still known as the Greater Hartford Open.

TPC River Highlands sits near the Connecticut River, outside Hartford. The course was designed by Pete Dye and later modified by Bobby Weed, with a compact layout that rewards precise approach play and creates exciting closing holes. Its par-4 15th and drivable par-4 17th are especially associated with late-round drama.

The tournament has used several names, including the Buick Championship, before becoming the Travelers Championship in 2007. It is sometimes confused with other famous PGA Tour venues such as Torrey Pines or Muirfield Village, but those courses host different events. In 2024, the Travelers Championship became one of the Tour’s elevated Signature Events.
