Fantasy Golf Picks for the Travelers Championship

Posted at 2:59 PM by Ryan Reiterman | Categories: Charlie Wi , David Toms , Hunter Mahan , Nick O'Hern , Sergio Garcia , Stewart Cink , Travelers Championship

Normally after a major championship the field for the next tournament is lacking star power. Not the case this week as many big names made the short trip from Long Island to Hartford for the Travelers Championship.

A-Players
Sergio Garcia: So much was made of Garcia's return to Bethpage after he was heckled by rowdy fans in 2002. But what slipped under the radar after the Open was Garcia finished T10 despite not having much confidence in his game coming into last week. He's only making his second career start at the Travelers, but Garcia's game seems to be coming back.

Stewart Cink: A two-time champion at Hartford, Cink has finished in the top 30 in his last three starts, including a T8 at the Memorial.

B-Players
Hunter Mahan: This has to be the easiest pick of the year outside of taking Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson in any tournament. In his last three starts at the Travelers, Mahan has finished T2, Win, T2. Oh, and he almost won the U.S. Open.

Dustin Johnson: The young bomber has seven top-25 finishes, including a win at Pebble Beach.

David Toms: Toms is due for a win any week now. Well, technically he did win, but it was at the CVS Charity Classic. Regardless, Toms has six top 10s this season and a solid record at the Travelers.

Bubba Watson: Bubba's been playing well since a T2 at Quail Hollow. He finished T6 last year at Hartford, and he is coming off a T20 at the U.S. Open.

C-Players
Nick O'Hern: He only has three top-25 finishes this season, but O'Hern has played solid at the Travelers, with two top 20s in his last two starts.

Charlie Wi: Wi's having a really good season so far, with six top-25 finishes, including three top 10s.
