It was another exciting Travelers Championship in 2026, as it was a PGA Tour signature event once again.
With all of the best players on the PGA Tour in the field on a course (TPC River Highlands) that allows plenty of birdies, there were plenty of low scores.
Viktor Hovland won in a Monday playoff against Scottie Scheffler. Hovland birdied the first hole after play was suspended due to darkness after regulation Sunday night following a rain delay.
The event had a $20 million purse.
How Much Does the Winner of the Travelers Championship Make?
Viktor Hovland’s winner’s share for the 2026 Travelers Championship was $3.6 million. Scottie Scheffler received $2.16 million for finishing second, while Collin Morikawa got $1.36 million for finishing in third.
