The PGA Tour schedule rolls on to the Travelers Championship this week, where another big purse awaits.

The Travelers is one of the Tour's "elevated" events, meaning a $20 million purse with $3.6 million to the winner. But unlike some of the other elevateds this season, this one will have a field of 156 players competing for all that cash.

Twenty-three of the world's top 30 players (21 of the top 30 in the SI World Golf Rankings) are in the field at TPC River Highlands, which offers plenty of fireworks every year. Not since Nick Price in 1993 has the winning score not been double-digits under par.

Xander Schauffele returns as the defending champion.
