After surgery to fix decade-old problem, Harris English back, eyes Travelers repeat

CROMWELL Conn. — Despite a long layoff from competitive golf, Harris English is back at the Travelers Championship and in prime position to successfully defend his title.

English, who is in contention after a second-round 65, endured a five-month hiatus from the game earlier this year after opting to have surgery on a torn labrum in his right hip in Vail, Colorado. He then stayed there for roughly three weeks doing rehab twice a day.

English said for the past 10 years, he's been dealing with the injury and has been "band-aiding it with shots and injections and rehab, PT, pretty much everything.
