TPC River Highlands has seen its fair share of Sunday drama over the years. Now it will have some extra drama — and this time it's coming in the form of a two-man playoff between Scottie Scheffler and Viktor Hovland on Monday.
72 holes were not enough to determine the winner of the 2026 Travelers Championship, pushing the final signature event of the Tour season into its fifth day. Weather suspended play for less than two hours late Sunday afternoon, with rain impacting the final pairing of Scheffler and Hovland beginning around 5:20 p.m. as they were playing the 12th hole. The rain didn't halt play initially but eventually lightning did.
And coming out of the break, Hovland was able to regain some momentum on the final four holes and claw back from two shots down to tie Scheffler at 21 under, with darkness halting play before the playoff could commence. The winner of the duel walks away with $3.6 million from the Travelers' $20 million purse.
Here's how the purse has been paid out in Cromwell, Connecticut, with a final update coming Monday at the end of the playoff.
