New Practice Facility
TPC River Highlands, Cromwell, CT
In June 2008, the Travelers Championship proudly welcomed PGA TOUR
professionals to a new, state-of-the-art practice facility at TPC River
Highlands. At 23-acres, the facility is one of the largest on the PGA TOUR
and has received great acclaim from golf professionals, fans and sports
media. The $4.5 million facility will be utilized annually as a practice
facility for the Travelers Championship and for youth development golf
programs through The First Tee of Connecticut.
