“We’re so proud of our previous winners, and Chez, Jordan and Marc have all been wonderful champions,” Travelers' Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer, Andy Bessette said . “I am looking forward to see who will win this year’s Travelers Championship and join them in that distinguished club.”

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Travelers Championship held June 25–28, will be a TV-only event this year.
