Scottie Scheffler’s Travelers Championship tee time has been confirmed as the PGA Tour’s final Signature Event of the season gets under way at TPC River Highlands.
The Travelers tee-time sheet lists the opening pairings for Cromwell, with Scheffler among the headline names as a limited field begins a $20m week in Connecticut, according to the PGA Tour’s official tee times.
Why Scheffler’s Start Matters
The Travelers comes immediately after a demanding major stretch, so Scheffler’s first round is not just about position on the leaderboard. It is a test of how quickly he can reset into target golf on a course where scoring chances arrive early but mistakes can snowball.
TPC River Highlands usually rewards precise wedges, smart driving lines and aggressive putting. That profile suits Scheffler when his approach play is dialled in, but it also gives the chasing pack chances to apply pressure from the first morning.
With FedExCup positioning starting to loom, this is a useful temperature check. A fast start from Scheffler would turn the final Signature Event into another control exercise; a slow one would open the door for a field built to attack. The first two rounds should quickly show whether his ball-striking edge travels from major conditions into a lower-scoring, birdie-heavy week in Connecticut.
