  • Jim Furyk Commits to 2017 Travelers Championship
    CONTACT: Tara Gerber Travelers Championship 860.502.6815 [email protected] JIM FURYK COMMITS TO 2017 TRAVELERS CHAMPIONSHIP HARTFORD, Conn., March 30, 2017 – The Travelers Championship today announced that Jim Furyk has committed to play in the 2017 tournament. Furyk, a 17-time winner on the PGA TOUR who will captain the United States team at the 2018 Ryder Cup Matches, made golf history during the final round of the 2016 Travelers Championship when he shot 58, the lowest score ever in a PGA TOUR event. “The Travelers Championship will always have a special connection to Jim because of what he did in that record-breaking round,” said Travelers Championship Tournament Director Nathan Grube. “We’re looking forward to recognizing and celebrating his accomplishment, and seeing what he might have in store this year. Considering all that Jim has accomplished in his brilliant career, there are a lot of possibilities.” On Aug. 7, 2016, Furyk carded 10 birdies and an eagle en route to shooting the lowest 18-hole score in TOUR history. He birdied the 16th hole at TPC River Highlands to reach 12 under par for the day, then made pars on the last two holes to claim his spot in golf’s record book. A number of items from Furyk’s feat remain on display at the World Golf Hall of Fame, and minutes after signing for his 58, Travelers pledged $58,000 to a charity of his choice. Half the money went to the Jim & Tabitha Furyk Foundation, the other half to the Bruce Edwards Foundation for ALS Research.
