2024 Travelers Championship Top Contenders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Scottie Scheffler is still the best golfer in the world, thanks to the good performances he has achieved during 2024, including a major. However, the American comes from a participation below the expectations in the U.S. Open, closing in 41st place. <\/strong>That is a far cry from his title in the Masters Tournament and eighth place in the PGA Championship, so he will want to prove that his first position in the world ranking is no coincidence.

Notably, Scottie has other celebrations this year: Arnold Palmer Invitational, The Player Championship, RBC Heritage, and the most recent, on June 9, which was the Memorial Tournament, leaving Collin Morikawa behind.

At 30, Xander Schauffele is living a moment of maturity as an athlete, since his results are proving it, placing him second in the world. In comparison to Scheffler, Xander has an advantage: he already knows what it means to win in Connecticut, since in 2012, he got the glory, beating J.T. Poston and Sahith Theegala. <\/strong>

Schauffele has only won one title this year, but it was the PGA Championship. In addition, he was already eighth in the Masters Tournament and finished seventh in the U.S. Open. In other words, in all majors, he has been at least in the top 10.<\/strong>

Sweden’s Ludvig Aberg, only 24 years old, is making his way to the top and can boast of being ranked fourth in the world today.

This year, he is still looking for his first win, as the last trophy he lifted was the RSM Classic when he defeated Canadian Mackenzie Hughes. It has been a long time since then. At the major level, he was second at the Masters and finished 12th at the U.S. Open. <\/strong>

One candidate who announced that he would not participate last Monday was Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy, who gave more spice to the fight for this trophy awarded on U.S. soil. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 Travelers Championship Outside picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Collin Morikawa is living a good moment, even though he has not been champion since 2023. He has just finished runner-up in the Memorial Tournament, third in the Masters Tournament, fourth in the PGA Championship, and 14th in the U.S. Open. <\/strong>

Viktor Hovland is one of the best players in the world, but he is looking for his first win of the year. His most remarkable role was his third place in <\/strong>the PGA Championship. <\/strong><\/a>

There are other candidates, such as Patrick Cantlay, Hideki Matsuyama, or Sam Burns, but we cannot leave out the defending champion, Keegan Bradley, who at the age of 38, wants to be the first to win the Travelers Championship twice in a row since Phil Mickelson (2001-2002). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
