Travelers Championship · Derived from round-level strokes gained, 2022–2023–2024–2025 · ~69 players per field
Across 4 recent editions (2022, 2023, 2024, 2025), the players who finished top-10 at TPC River Highlands separated from the field most through approach play (35% of the total separation), with putting second at 33%. Around the green mattered least — 15% — which is worth knowing when the broadcast narrative says otherwise.
The winners tell their own version: in 2 of the last 4 editions, the champion's best category for the week was putting. That differs from what separates the whole top-10 (approach play) — winning weeks are outlier weeks, usually powered by a hot week in one skill on top of the baseline the course demands.
Course notes: TPC River Highlands — scoring, strong putting premium.
