CROMWELL, Conn.

Vose, who lives adjacent to the TPC River Highlands course, approached Travelers officials seeking permission to hold her "18-hole stroll" when she was in eighth grade and looking for a way to fight the disease that took her father's life when she was 5. The tournament did more than that.
