As usual, it seemed to pass by in a heartbeat: the always awesome Travelers Championship.
Here in Connecticut its something we've grown up with. For anyone who's spent more than a couple of years here, it's synonymous with summer ...and this year was better than ever.
Actually, I think I say that every year, but with the 2010 event coming as it did on the heels of a particularly draconian US Open, the easygoing vibe this tournament is known for, seemed more welcome than ever.
The Travelers is always impeccably organized too. The the staff and volunteers are consistently friendly and attentive. Players talk about it every year and I've experienced it first hand from the media perspective since 2007.
So yes, it's always sad to see it end, though admittedly a playoff on Sunday adds excitement to the finish. Below... randomly thrown into a slideshow... are a bunch of my photos from the week in Cromwell.
Many thanks to The Travelers Staff and Volunteers ... and to the staff of The PGA Tour... for a memorable tournament.
Expect me in CT next year. ;)

i desperately miss the westchester classic which was played in harrison for decades until recently
in the "old" days, before parade sized player entourages, and nervous security concerns, and massive mass-merchant tents the center of attention, one could actually get up-close-and-personal with the GOLF action and recognized players as well as witness the travails of the struggling journeyman player
anyway be well
