CROMWELL, Conn. — The Travelers Championship, with a date that many people would think is among the worst on the PGA Tour calendar—the week after the U.S. Open—is a success story that commissioner Jay Monahan loves to discuss.

As it turns out, Monahan spoke for just over 40 minutes and outlined a new structure the PGA Tour plans to implement soon.
