Scottie Scheffler made history by winning the Travelers Championship and securing his sixth PGA Tour victory of the season. The final round was eventful, with a group of protesters interrupting play on the 18th green as the last group was about to putt. Despite the delay, Scheffler narrowly missed a birdie putt to seal the win, leading to a play-off with South Korea’s Tom Kim.
In the play-off, Scheffler emerged victorious on the first extra hole at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut. This win makes Scheffler the first player since Arnold Palmer in 1962 to achieve six victories before July. Reflecting on his accomplishment, Scheffler expressed gratitude for the successful season and the enjoyment he experienced along the way.
Both Scheffler and Kim played exceptional golf, with closing rounds of 65 and 66 respectively, finishing tied at 22 under par. The intensity of the play-off added to the excitement, culminating in Scheffler’s clutch performance to secure the championship title.
