Patrick Reed will be looking to win the Travelers Championship for the first time when he participates in the
PGA Tour tournament.

Captain America has won nine tournaments on the PGA Tour including the 2018 Masters Tournament and the 2014 WGC-Cadillac Championship.
Reed became just the fourth player in the last two decades to win four times on the PGA Tour before his 25th birthday when he won the 2015 Hyundai Tournament of Champions.
The San Antonio-born star has already tasted some success this year when won the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines Golf Course in La Jolla, California, the USA in January.
Captain America won by five strokes after a final-round 4-under 68 ahead of Tony Finau, Viktor Hovland, Henrik Norlander, Ryan Palmer and Xander Schauffele.

Reed says his preparations for the Travelers Championship are on track as he looks to clinch his second trophy in 2021.
"Preparation has gone amazing. We feel good," Reed said.
"Golf game feels really solid and really now I just need to maintain the energy level and get ready for tournament time. The biggest thing for me is I have to stay aggressive.

"It's not as much being aggressive off the tee as it is more on the second shot. Get yourself conservative off the tee, get yourself on the fairway, and from there allow my irons to attack."
Billy Casper is the most decorated player in the history of the Travelers Championship having won four titles in 1963, 1965, 1968 and 1973.
