The third major championship is in the books and the final signature event of the 2025 PGA Tour season now follows. The Travelers Championship takes place this week following the U.S. Open and will see players travel from Pittsburgh to Cromwell, Connecticut, for the last limited-field tournament of the year.
One of the most popular stops on Tour by players and caddies alike, the Travelers Championship has produced dramatic theatrics throughout its long history. Recently, it has seen Jordan Spieth hole out from the greenside bunker to win the tournament, a long playoff where Harris English reigned supreme and sub-60 rounds — a feat most recently accomplished by Cameron Young in last year’s tournament.
Speaking of playoffs and last year’s tournament, it was world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler who surged to the finish line and got the better of his good friend, Tom Kim, in extra holes to win his fourth signature event of 2024. Scheffler arrives at TPC River Highlands off a top-10 finish at the U.S. Open where he was unable to conjure together momentum throughout the week.
Tallying five misses inside 5 feet on the greens and seven 3 putts across his 72 holes at Oakmont Country Club, Scheffler should be right back in the mix and possibly the winner’s circle if that putter cooperates. Rory McIlroy, meanwhile, looks to build back his mojo following a final-round 67 at the U.S. Open.
Making the move from Florida to London in the coming weeks, the Northern Irishman plays in his final U.S. event before the FedEx Cup Playoffs. McIlroy and Scheffler have both won three times this season with multiple-time winners like Ben Griffin and Sepp Straka both teeing it up.
Despite this, there is still a number of long winless droughts on the PGA Tour held by the likes of Collin Morikawa and Patrick Cantlay. World No. 3 and former tournament champion Xander Schauffele is approaching one full year without a win; his last trophy raise was the Claret Jug.
Tommy Fleetwood and Young find themselves in fine enough form as they search for their first entrance into the winner’s circle while the likes of Spieth, Viktor Hovland, Justin Thomas and Ludvig Åberg round out the action in New England.

Odds via FanDuel Sportsbook
- Scottie Scheffler (3-1): Scheffler’s run immediately after major championships is something special. Last year, he won the RBC Heritage and this event in the weeks’ following the Masters and the U.S. Open. While he has yet to win the immediate week following a major since, he has acquitted himself nicely this year with a pair of top-10 finishes. Expect that same run to continue at the Travelers Championship and potentially improve given his steady improvement with the driver throughout the tournament at Oakmont. It felt like he made nothing on the greens at the U.S. Open, and he still finished inside the top 10.
- Rory McIlroy (11-1): Noted that he has been struggling for motivation and that The Open at Royal Portrush in his home country of Northern Ireland will be his beacon for the rest of the year. Before he heads back home, McIlroy returns to Connecticut where he has been splendid with five top 20s in five trips including a top-10 finish in his most recent effort. Things have been off since the Masters win, but perhaps that final-round 67 at Oakmont can kick him in the right direction.
- Xander Schauffele (14-1)
- Collin Morikawa (18-1): Must have been an all-time infuriating U.S. Open for Morikawa. The two-time major champion gained 12 strokes on the field with his iron play only to bleed much of it back on the greens before settling for a T23 finish. Oakmont’s greens are as severe as they come, and while one would think a bounce back is in store with the putter at TPC River Highlands, Morikawa has never figured out these complexes. He is striking the cover off the golf ball at the moment.
- Ludvig Åberg (25-1): The Swedish superstar missed his second straight major cut at the U.S. Open after sharing the very early lead in the championship. Some tactical errors and course management decisions were ultimately his undoing as he continues to learn the nuances of major championship golf. The driver is coming around and beginning the peak, and his iron play is sharpening by the week. He feels closer than it may seem.
- Justin Thomas (25-1): Speaking of major championship woes. Thomas found himself smack dab in the middle of the driving range Saturday afternoon in Pittsburgh since he had no tee time awaiting. He has now missed seven major cuts since his win at the 2022 PGA Championship and has only one top-30 finish to go along with it. The two-time major champion is just not a good major golfer at the moment, but that doesn’t mean he is not a good PGA Tour golfer. His game translates to PGA Tour venues, and he is live to rebound this week.
- Patrick Cantlay (25-1)
- Viktor Hovland (33-1)
- Sepp Straka (35-1)
- Tommy Fleetwood (35-1)

Kordisté obsadili v týmové soutěži na mistrovství Evropy osmé místo
Třetí tým z loňské pařížské olympiády, kde byl v sestavě místo Pavlíka loučící se Jiří Beran, měl v Janově jako čtvrtý nasazený volný los v prvním kole. Ve druhém vyřadil po přesvědčivé výhře 45:30 ruský výběr startující pod hlavičkou týmu neutrálních sportovců (AIN).Proti Němcům, kteří byli nasazeni jako číslo 11 a v osmifinále vyřadili turnajové šestky z Izraele, ale Češi od počátku tahali za kratší konec. Jurka ještě po úvodním duelu předal „štafetu“ ve vedení 4:3, ale od té doby měl navrch soupeř. Ze zbylých osmi soubojů ještě dva těsné dílčí úspěchy zaznamenal Rubeš, ale jen zmírnil ztrátu a rozjetí Němci už se nenechali zastavit.V bojích o konečné umístění utrpěli kordisté nejprve porážku 31:45 s favorizovanými Maďary, které ve čtvrtfinále překvapivě vyřadili Nizozemci.

Fantasy Baseball Trade Analyzer: These big-name hitters may be worth moving this summer
Having been actively involved in the trade market for more than two decades, I can confidently say that the hardest thing for a fantasy baseball manager is to sell high on a player who is having a tremendous season.[Smarter waivers, better trades, optimized lineups — Yahoo Fantasy Plus unlocks it all]After all, the manager either drafted this player or added him via the waiver wire because they believed that the player could be successful. When they see their predictions coming to fruition, they feel validated and want to see the season through to the end. However, there are times when a player is outperforming even the optimistic predictions the manager had for him, and the right move is to trade the player away before he experiences regression.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThis week’s article is solely comprised of hitters who are off to terrific starts […]

2025 NBA Draft: Will Spurs, 76ers trade down from top 3? It’s a rare move, but here’s why it could make sense
Trading down from a top-3 pick is a rare move in the NBA. You almost never see it. Why would you? Rookie-scale contracts are the best deals in basketball, and the higher a team picks, the better its odds historically of landing a franchise changer. Most GMs would rather get fired swinging for a future All-Star than risk sliding down the board and watching the guy they passed on torch them for the next decade.McHale and Parish for Joe Barry Carroll. Webber for Penny. Fultz for Tatum. Luka for Trae. These are the kinds of trades that have shaped eras.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementSince 1980, only 10 teams with a top-3 pick have traded down and stayed within the lottery. That’s 10 out of 135 chances over 45 drafts. Here they are:1980: Celtics traded No. 1 to WarriorsWarriors picked Joe Barry CarrollCeltics moved down […]
