The final signature event of the PGA Tour season took the best players in the world TPC River Highlands for the annual stop in Connecticut for the 2025 Travelers Championship. The event stands among players’ favorite weeks on the schedule as low scores are always on the menu at the Travelers given there are birdies abound at the course.
That indeed came true once again this week as Keegan Bradley finished 15 under across his 72 holes to win the Travelers, claim the $3.6 million grand prize and rocket up the Ryder Cup standings to ninth on the American side. The United States captain may have given himself an interesting decision to make in about two months’ time.
Being the final signature event on the calendar, the Travelers stood as the last chance to bank big money and big points before the FedEx Cup Playoffs — aside from next month’s Open Championship. In addition to Bradley’s winner’s purse, each of the top 11 finishers will make at least $500,000.
Those are big paychecks, but it’s not just about padding the bank accounts for players this week. It’s also important money for those battling for position on the United States Ryder Cup team. Ryder Cup points are based on the money list with 1 point awarded per $1,000 earned in PGA Tour events. That means Bradley added 3,600 Ryder Cup points, which could be the difference in being an automatic qualifier.
Here is the full breakdown of the payouts from the $20 million purse up for grabs this week at the Travelers.
