HARTFORD, Conn. -- The Travelers Championship tees off June 16 - 22 at TPC River Highlands, welcoming a player field that includes 28 players who have won PGA TOUR events in the past two years, including six 2008 winners; nine past champions -- including defending champion Hunter Mahan -- and eight players who are past major winners.

The field will feature four of the top 10 players on both the PGA TOUR Money List and the FedExCup points race, Vijay Singh, Stewart Cink, Kenny Perry and Ryuji Imada. Most recent commitments to the field include 2003 British Open Champion Ben Curtis and fan favorite Bo Van Pelt.

"We look forward to welcoming some of the world's best golfers back to Connecticut and delivering another fantastic event for the fans," said Tournament Director Nathan Grube. "As the Travelers Championship continues to grow, I am pleased with the trends I see in our player field year to year.

From the new practice facility to the charter flight from the U.S. Open and more, we've made strategic efforts to show to players that the Travelers Championship has their best interest in mind and that this event has a goal of being one of the premier events on the PGA TOUR. The players have definitely taken notice, and I'm pleased with the relationships we have been able to develop."

The 156-player field has six remaining spots, which will be filled by four Open Qualifiers and two Sponsors Exemptions. For a full list, click here.
