Conners top 10, Bradley a millionaire again, Travelers Championship final results..

 PGA Tour: Travelers Championship Leaderboard  FedExCup

I remember back in February during the Waste Management Pheonix Open where Nick Taylor finished a brilliant 2nd worth over $2,000,000 we were all in awe of the effect the LIV had on the PGA Tour, forcing them into a series of designated events all worth $20m.

There was an unprecedented number of pre tournament qualifiers vying for 5 spots to become an instant millionaire.

This week for whatever reason, the Travelers Championship and it's sponsors hit that gravy train, and we've already become blaise about it, confirming what we all know, the Fed Ex Cup, Race to Dubai etc. and all the millions they throw at the winners doesn't matter to any of us at all.

It was Keegan Bradley 62 63 64 68 -23 who topped the list of pros who simply torched TPC River Highlands with record low scores, who has become a millionaire, again, this time worth $3,600,000 and 500 FedEx points. 

FYI, after missing the cut last week at the US Open, this win pushes Keegan to over $40,000,000 in earnings over 325 events all on the PGA Tour. His 6th win, he has 9 times been the runner up.

Lesser lights Zac Blair and Brian Harman had their biggest paydays T2 -20 worth $1,780,000 each.

As usual Scottie Scheffler who has benefitted more than any other golfer off the designated events T4 with Patrick Cantlay and Chez Revie all at -19, a mere $841,666,67 in their bank accounts this morning. 

Corey Conners would have won any other week with scores 67 65 65 66 -17 ended up T9. He was the only Canadian to make the cut.  $525,000 and 72 FedEx points.

Last place 66th Andrew Landry won $42,200, that's right a years salary for many of us. 

This week with most of the top players now off, the rank and file head to muggy Detroit for the Rocket Mortgage Classic $8,800,000 regular prize money.

Adam Svensson, Michael Gligic, Adam Hadwin and Taylor Pendrith are in the field.
