The PGA Tour will wrap up its signature events this week with the Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands.

While it’s no surprise World No. 1 and defending champion Scottie Scheffler is the betting favorite in the Travelers Championship odds, I’m further down the board with my top sleepers and long-shot golf picks for this week’s action in

Travelers Championship predictions

Longshot pick to win: Keegan Bradley
+4500 at FanDuel

The 2023 Travelers champ has teed it up at this event every year for the past 14 seasons, with a T2 and T8 also on the resume. Keegan Bradley brings a balanced game into the 2025 edition, too, and he sits third in this field in true strokes gained tee-to-green since capturing the BMW Championship last August. 

It’s also worth noting the six-time PGA Tour winner has averaged +0.56 true strokes gained putting per round over his last two starts — a key stat for the American Ryder Cup captain, as his work on the greens has often been his Achilles’ heel.

Longshot pick to win: Ben Griffin
+4500 at FanDuel

Ben Griffin has found his groove with four straight Top 10s, highlighted by a win at the Charles Schwab and a runner-up at the Memorial. He followed that up with a T10 at the U.S. Open and has gained true strokes in all key categories, ranking fifth in this field tee-to-green and second in putting during the hot streak. 

This will also be his third competitive trip to TPC River Highlands, where he gained true strokes on approaches in both of his previous appearances.

Longshot pick to win: Ryan Fox
+9000 at FanDuel

Winning three times in a six-event span is a tall order, so Ryan Fox definitely qualifies as a flier for the 2025 Travelers. 

Still, the seasoned international winner is riding some strong form and brimming with confidence. 

Since his victory at the Myrtle Beach Classic in May, Fox ranks fourth in this field in both true strokes gained tee-to-green and on approach, while also sitting 18th in putting — a well-rounded profile that has my attention at this number.

Neil Parker is, first and foremost, a sports fan. A huge supporter of the Cowboys, Cubs, and Maple Leafs, he has managed to parlay his passion into writing gigs with Sportsbook Review, USA TODAY, theScore, DraftKings Playbook, and RotoWire, among many others. He also co-hosted the Daily Fantasy Edge podcast and can now be seen offering expert golf and hockey advice on Covers’ Before you Bet broadcast.

Neil takes a numbers-based approach to his handicapping and complements his in-depth statistical analysis with a keen eye on the markets to provide the best available odds. He loves to lean on his rolodex of idioms to offset his inner nerd. When it comes to wagering, he throws down on anything that catches his eye at bet365, Betway and BetVictor. He also keeps a close eye on CoolBet because the polar bear brand often has outlier NHL and NFL moneyline prices.

Neil graduated with honors from St. Thomas University in 2007 before completing his BEd at Acadia University in 2010. After teaching a myriad of courses and subjects, he found a groove delivering fun lessons to exceptional learners in non-traditional classroom environments. If his decade-plus teaching run taught him anything about sports betting, it’s to stay the course and use the summer – or offseason – to refresh and prepare to be better in the year to come.

Neil’s top pieces of advice for recreational bettors are to stay within your means and to remember sportsbooks aren’t bank accounts. Don’t be afraid to pull those winnings and treat yourself to a lifetime experience courtesy of a big win.
