"When Travelers first became the title sponsor in 2007, our goal was to make a difference in our community," said Alan Schnitzer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Travelers. "We are proud to have done that 19 years running, including three years with an elevated status. After all this time, the Travelers Championship is still a labor of love, made possible with the PGA TOUR's support, the best players in golf, corporate sponsors, community partners, the countless Travelers employees who volunteer their time and, most importantly, the fans.
