CROMWELL, Conn. (AP) -- Golfers who made the cross-country trip from the U.S. Open to Connecticut to play in this week's Travelers Championship may have been enticed by the $6.4 million purse or the nice trophy, but what many really want is their face on a piece of candy.
The tournament, which begins Thursday, has become known on tour for the little perks it offers players. That includes providing the champion with a supply of M&M's with his face printed onto the hard candy shell.
Defending champion Kevin Streelman says he gives the candy to family and friends.
