Travelers Championship 2024: How much does it cost to play at TPC River Highlands?
The 2024 Travelers Championship gets underway on Thursday, June 20 as the PGA Tour moves to Connecticut and will have a total prize purse of $20 million. If you are not a pro Golfer, what are your chances of playing a round? Well, we look at it here.
Playing at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, CT, the venue for the 2024 Travelers Championship, involves significant costs, especially considering its prestigious status. As a private club, access is typically restricted to members and their guests. Membership fees can be quite high, with initiation costs ranging from $10,000 to $25,000, and monthly dues between $500 and $800. These fees grant members access to the course and its facilities, which include a recently renovated clubhouse, practice areas, and more.
For non-members, opportunities to play are more limited and usually require connections or participation in special events. Occasionally, non-members might gain access through associations such as the Connecticut Bar Association, which allows its members to play at a reduced annual fee. Otherwise, the best chances to play as a guest involve being invited by a member or participating in charity events hosted at the course. Public play is not generally available at TPC River Highlands, which helps maintain its exclusivity and high maintenance standards.
Despite the high costs, TPC River Highlands offers a world-class golfing experience. The course, known for its picturesque setting with rolling fairways, lakes, and mature trees, is a challenging par 70 layout designed by Pete Dye and Bobby Weed. Playing here means enjoying a course that hosts PGA Tour professionals annually, providing an exclusive experience similar to that enjoyed by top golfers. For golf enthusiasts, the investment in playing at such a venue can be well worth the memorable experience.
