Travelers Championship 2023 Betting Odds, Course And Power Rankings
We head cross-country to TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut for the 2023 Travelers Championship Thursday. It's the PGA Tour's second consecutive "elevated event" after last week's 2023 U.S. Open won by Wyndham Clark.
Even though the U.S. Open was at the Los Angeles Country Club, the Travelers field is stacked due to the juiced up prize money. The Travelers usually attracts a strong field since it's the second-most attended on Tour behind the Phoenix Open.

The average winning score of the past five Travelers Championships is 17-under par with an average cut-line of roughly 1-under par and +2650 odds.

My 2023 Travelers Championship Power Rankings
The top-10 golfers for the 2023 U.S. Open according to my model courtesy of FantasyNational.com.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is all the way down to 5th in my power rankings for this event because he has the coldest putter in the game right now. Scheffler ranks 107th in this field for SG: Putting on Bentgrass greens.
Jon Rahm, World No. 2, is 3rd on my key stat model over the last 36 rounds, But, Rahm is 50th in this field for total SG at TPC River Highlands and 66th in total SG at comp courses.
Spoiler alert: Viktor Hovland will be on my 2023 Travelers Championship betting card this week. If Hovland was a threat in the U.S. Open he'd be closer to 15-to-1 by the odds.
