TPC River Highlands – site of this week’s Travelers Championship on the PGA Tour – features a design by Bobby Weed that opened in 1989 in Cromwell, Connecticut.
The current layout was built on the site of a former course, Middletown Golf Club, that opened in 1928. It then became Edgewood Country Club in 1934. The site was reworked by famed architect Pete Dye in 1982 as TPC of Connecticut before Weed became involved. Weed most recently worked on the course in 2016, remodeling bunkers and updating the strategic demands.
Short by modern Tour standards, the private TPC River Highlands will play to 6,852 yards with a par of 70 this week.
