Watson overhauls faltering Casey to win Travelers title
Print Edition
Bubba Watson stormed back from six strokes behind in the final round to overhaul Englishman Paul Casey and win the Travelers Championship by three strokes in Cromwell, Connecticut, on Sunday.
Watson carded a 7-under-par 63, capping a dominant performance with a three-foot birdie at the final hole at TPC River Highlands after almost sinking his wedge approach shot. The American finished at 17-under 263 to become the first three-time winner on the PGA Tour this year. He previously won in February at Riviera in Los Angeles, also for the third time, and in March at the World Golf Championships-Match Play in Austin, Texas. Casey started the day with a four-shot cushion over American Russell Henley, but a birdie at the first hole was the Englishman’s only one the entire day. He carded 72 to tie for second at 14-under with Americans JB Holmes (67), Stewart Cink (62) and Beau Hossler (66). Henley finished a further shot back in a tie for sixth.
