Keegan Bradley looks to win his second consecutive Travelers Championship when he takes part in the event at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Conn. He won last year's event by one stroke over Tommy Fleetwood and Russell Henley. The tournament, which begins on Thursday, will be played on the par-70, 6,844-yard course. Scottie Scheffler is the +450 favorite at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Others expected to contend include Xander Schauffele (+1475), Ludvig Aberg (+1700), Tommy Fleetwood (+1750), Cameron Young (+2050), Sam Burns (+2200) and Matt Fitzpatrick (+2200). Bradley is at +4800 to repeat as champ.
Before making any 2026 Travelers Championship picks, you NEED to see the predictions and Travelers Championship best bets from elite golf expert Brady Kannon.
Kannon is an elite golfing handicapper with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. He has called eight major winners since 2013 and hit six PGA winners, including 110-1 longshot Harris English at the Farmers Insurance Open in 2025. He also hit on Matt Fitzpatrick (15-1) this year for an outright winner. Additionally, he's 46-44-5 on head-to-head bets since joining SportsLine. Anyone who followed his lead could have been WAY UP!
Now, Kannon has been digging into the 2026 Travelers Championship field to find the best betting value and just locked in his Travelers Championship best bets to back. We can tell you he's fading Wyndham Clark at +28-1 at DraftKings.
"So, this is the second of the two most recent major champions," Kannon said. "Rai did not play immediately the next week after winning at Aronimink in May but Clark is scheduled to go here in Cromwell after going gate-to-wire last week at Shinnecock. Had he not done anything much different from what he have been seeing out of Clark lately, he would probably be 40 or 50-1 to win this week – not less than 30. And is he really going to compete at such a high level for the second straight week after accomplishing what he did in Southampton last week? I congratulate him in the fullest and hope he's partying like it's 1999 but again, I just can't imagine he is immediately ready to go through four days of all this again – against the best players in the world.
"I am seeing full tournament head-to-head matchup offerings with Clark against Ludvig Aberg, Sam Burns, and Justin Thomas this week. In each case, Clark is a big underdog. The oddsmakers, and probably Clark himself, know this is a tough spot for him to dial it right back up again. He may find that groove once again by the weekend but I don't think he comes out at a major championship level right from the start again this week."
Kannon has revealed his best bets, and they include a 55-1 longshot whose "form looks very solid and the golf course fits his game." You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in your bets!
