Historically, the Travelers Championship is the largest sporting event in Connecticut, drawing huge crowds and raising millions of dollars for charity. According to Travelers, since it became the title sponsor in 2007, the tournament has generated more than $20 million for nearly 800 nonprofits. Before the pandemic, the event raised $2.1 million in 2019, and last year, with no fans in attendance and the tournament held as a TV-only event, it still raised $1.6 million.
