TPC River Highlands, host of the Travelers Championship, is known for elevated greens that demand precise and creative shots around the putting surface.
Many players struggle in these situations because there is often very little green to work with, increasing the importance of proper technique.
To execute a high-lofted pitch shot, players should open the clubface, lower their hands slightly, and add more knee flex at setup.
The primary goal of the shot is to launch the ball high and quickly, allowing it to land softly near the target.
Using this technique helps players control distance and stop the ball close to the hole, turning a difficult short-game situation into a realistic scoring opportunity.
