Watching Golf this Week: Travelers Championship

If you are burnt out on golf right now, we understand. A week at Olympic, as either fan or player, will take it out of you.

But this is the PGA Tour! There is no rest! Play continues on this week with the Travelers Championship in Connecticut. The good news is, the PGA Tour’s Live@ online video coverage is back, so you can enjoy tournament play from the comfort of your computer or mobile device. And you will get your first chance to watch Webb Simpson, U.S. Open champion, compete with that big silver trophy in his bag.

Well, maybe he won’t be carrying it around. At the very least he should be bird-man free, though birdies will probably be more prevalent this week at the TPC River Highlands than at last week’s bogey-fest. No Tiger or Phil in the field, but Masters champ Bubba Watson will apparently take a break from life as a dad to grace the course (hopefully for more than two days) as part of a pretty good field, you can see the list of names here. On to Connecticut!

Here’s where to follow the action:

PGA SHOT TRACKER
If all you want is shots and distances (which can be addicting) get your fix via Shot Tracker, which also returns for the Travelers.

FACEBOOK PAGE
The Travelers has Boomer Berman today on its Facebook page. That’s what you get for having a pro-am near the kingdom of Bristol. Or at least close enough to drive there.

WHAT’S THE COURSE LIKE?
Here’s the official page of the TPC River Highlands. If anyone else knows any history, send it our way.

WHO WON THIS THING LAST YEAR?
The painter hat guy, aka Frederick Jacobsen. Bubba won in 2010, so that’s why he’s here this week instead of changing diapers.

LOCAL FLAVOR
The tourney history is a good quick read — for the thing that was formerly known as the Greater Hartford Open. For local coverage the Hartford Courant has a good looking site including a video guide to the course. Watch out for those fold-over ads for the local casinos, though.
