The U.S. Open was the third major championship on the PGA Tour schedule, but another signature event leaves little time for recovery after a grueling week at Oakmont. The 2025 Travelers Championship begins on Thursday at TPC River Highlands, and the elevated purse will attract another loaded PGA Tour field. Scottie Scheffler worked his way onto the final page of the leaderboard last week and was briefly tied for the lead in the clubhouse before finishing T-7.
Scheffler, the defending champion of this event, is the +280 favorite in the 2025 Travelers Championship odds, while Masters champion Rory McIlroy is +1100 and Xander Schauffele is +1200. McIlroy has shot 64 or better six times in 20 career rounds at TPC River Highlands and is priced at +1800 to be the leader after Round 1. Only five former winners are in the 2025 Travelers Championship field this week, including Scheffler, Keegan Bradley and Jordan Spieth. Before locking in your 2025 Travelers Championship picks or entering any PGA DFS tournaments on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up over $8,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 15 majors entering the weekend, including the 2025 Masters — its fourth Masters in a row — and the 2025 PGA Championship. Anyone who has followed its sports betting picks could have seen massive returns on betting apps and when taking advantage of the latest FanDuel promo code, DraftKings promo code and Fanatics Sportsbook promo code.
Now that the 2025 Travelers Championship field is locked in and fans are deciding where to bet the Travelers Championship, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.
2025 Travelers Championship predictions for Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Xander Schauffele
One shocker the model is calling at the U.S. Open 2025: Rory McIlroy, a five-time major champion, stumbles this week and doesn’t even crack the top five. McIlroy did manage a final-round 67 at Oakmont to climb into the top 20, but it was clear that he was continuing to chase his game. Since winning the Masters, McIlroy has only played in four solo events, finishing T-7 at the Truist Championship, T-47 at the PGA Championship, missing the cut at the RBC Canadian Open, and then going T-19 at the U.S. Open.
It could certainly be a coincidence that McIlroy’s game fell off after he completed an emotional 10-year journey to win golf’s grand slam, but his playing schedule could also indicate he was a little gassed by that tireless pursuit. Either way, he’s not playing his best at the moment, and he’s only recorded one top-10 finish in five starts at the Travelers Championship over the last eight years.
The model has also locked in its projection for Scottie Scheffler, who won his third major earlier this year at the PGA Championship and has been No. 1 in the Official World Golf Ranking for more than 140 weeks. Scheffler went into the 2025 U.S. Open with the shortest odds to win a major championship (+280) since Tiger Woods in 2009. A late-early tee time drawing probably put him on Oakmont when it was at its firmest and fastest before rain moved in late on Friday, and he wound up shooting 73-71 in the first two rounds.
The wet conditions at Oakmont caused problems for most of the field, but Scheffler did manage back-to-back 70s to give himself a punching chance down the stretch. He ultimately fell short, but he and McIlroy are the only two players on the PGA Tour this year with three wins. Scheffler’s 16 victories since the start of 2022 are by far the most on tour. He’s a deserving favorite, but as with the U.S. Open, can you justify playing him on a weekly basis at these odds?
Meanwhile, the model has examined Xander Schauffele’s chances of collecting a 10th career PGA Tour win. The 31-year-old quickly established himself as one of the game’s brightest young stars by winning the Tour Championship during his rookie season, and then took his stardom to another level with two major championship victories in 2024. However, he’s yet to win in 2025 and has only managed one top-10 finish so far this season.
He’s currently 50th in the FedEx Cup standings, and his driver and putter in particular are giving him issues. He ranks 115th on the PGA Tour this season in strokes gained: off-the-tee (-0.032) and 126th in strokes gained: putting (-0.138). Luckily, Schauffele does have a lot of success at TPC River Highlands to lean on, as he won the 2022 Travelers Championship and has been top 20 in five of six career starts in this tournament.

How to make 2025 Travelers Championship picks
The model is also targeting three golfers with odds longer than 35-1 who will make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model’s picks here.

Dados de estreia do Flamengo no Mundial mostram como Pedro se esforça para não sair do time e ganhar mais minutos
A estreia do Flamengo no Mundial de Clubes revelou dados interessantes sobre a participação de Pedro, que ganhou voto de confiança de Filipe Luís e tem tido mais minutos em campo para “afinar” a parte técnica e física. Embora seja o atacante que atingiu a menor velocidade máxima, 28,1 km/h e percorreu a menor distância em campo (pouco mais de 7 Km) contra o Espérance, o camisa nove foi o jogador que mais finalizou a gol, três vezes. Com um gol nas últimas dez partidas, Pedro tem evoluído e entregado o que o técnico Filipe Luís pede em campo, apesar do leve jejum. Mas suas atuações ainda não dão certeza de que está no ponto ideal para encarar o Chelsea, amanhã, pelo torneio da Fifa. No último jogo, apesar da falha na frente do gol, entregou intensidade suficiente para se […]
Bazball vs the best: Bumrah ready to rock England
The recent Test retirements of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have left India without two legends of the game - or OGs as Jasprit Bumrah has called them - for the series in England, but the tourists will be able to call upon the best all-format bowler in the world.Few, if any, would suggest Bumrah is not that, with his jerky run-up, peculiar angles, swing, control, and array of slower balls and yorkers helping him amass 205 wickets in 45 Tests at an average below 20 and sit atop the ICC bowling rankings in the longest form. Add in over 500 wickets in white-ball games across domestic and international cricket and the 31-year-old has become a legend, or OG, himself. And the bad news for England's 'Bazballers' is that he is feeling fit ahead of the five-Test contest that starts […]

Chris Sale tosses near complete-game shutout as resurgent Braves clinch series against Mets
ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves feel good about their chances of winning whenever Chris Sale is on the mound, so imagine how they felt after staking the reigning Cy Young Award winner to a 3-0 lead in the first inning Wednesday against the New York Mets.Ronald Acuña Jr. homered on the first pitch of the opening inning. That solo shot was all Sale needed as he didn’t give an inch, continuing the dominant stretch of pitching he’s enjoyed by throwing a near complete-game shutout in 5-0 series-clinching win against the NL East-leading Mets.Advertisement“I feel like a broken record about him at this point,” Braves first baseman Matt Olson, who homered in the seventh inning, said. “He’s incredible, he competes his a— off every time he’s on the mound. And you saw what he can do out there tonight.”Sale’s bid for […]
Repercussão da estreia do Fluminense contra Borussia Dortmund facilita internacionalização da marca do clube
O bom desempenho do Fluminense na estreia da Copa do Mundo de Clubes, anteontem, rendeu elogios de jornais do exterior, que apontaram como injusto o placar final de 0 a 0 contra o Borussia Dortmund, e também de técnicos estrangeiros. Se o título ainda é um sonho difícil para os clubes brasileiros, atuações de fôlego diante dos grandes clubes da Europa já são, por si só, capazes de ajudar na tão desejada internacionalização da marca, avaliam especialistas em marketing esportivo.
