PGA Tour: Preview for 3M Open

July 24, 2025 by PGA Tour Brunch

BLAINE, Minn – The 2025 3M Open is the 35th of 36 FedEx Cup Regular Season events which means we are coming down the home stretch of the PGA Tour’s regular season.

The PGA TOUR returned to Minnesota for the seventh straight season, which debuted in 2019 as the TOUR’s first non-major event in Minnesota since the 1969 Minnesota Golf Classic (won by Frank Beard at Braemar Golf Club) and first official PGA TOUR event in the state since the 2009 PGA Championship (won by Y.E. Yang at Hazeltine National Golf Club).

TPC Twin Cities was designed by World Golf Hall of Fame member Arnold Palmer, who worked in consultation with Minnesota native and PGA TOUR veteran Tom Lehman.

Ten players in the field have competed in all six previous editions of the 3M Open: Cam Davis, Tony Finau, Brice Garnett, Chesson Hadley, Tom Hoge, Beau Hossler, Patton Kizzire, Peter Malnati, Troy Merritt, and Sam Ryder.

Four past champions of the 3M Open are in the field: Cameron Champ (2021), Tony Finau (2022), Lee Hodges (2023), Jhonattan Vegas (2024).

Vegas won the 2024 3M Open by one stroke over Max Greyserman, earning Vegas his fourth career PGA TOUR title in his 299th start. He became the first international winner of the event and the first player in tournament history with a win and runner-up (2021). Vegas seeks to become the first repeat winner in tournament history.

Maverick McNealy is the highest-ranked player in the field at No. 18 in the Official World Golf Ranking; has six top-10s this season, highlighted by a runner-up at The Genesis Invitational.

Following next week’s Wyndham Championship (July 31–Aug. 3), the top 70 players in the FedExCup standings will earn a spot in the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

  • There are 18 players in the 3M Open field who rank between Nos. 60-80 in the FedExCup standings entering the week: Davis Riley (No. 60), Kevin Yu (No. 61), Erik van Rooyen (No. 62), Rickie Fowler (No. 63), Cam Davis (No. 65), Patrick Rodgers (No. 66), Byeong Hun An (No. 67), Matti Schmid (No. 68), Keith Mitchell (No. 70), Emiliano Grillo (No. 71), Davis Thompson (No. 72), Eric Cole (No. 73), Alex Smalley (No. 74), Christiaan Bezuidenhout (No. 75), Kevin Roy (No. 76), Chris Kirk (No. 77), Gary Woodland (No. 78), Ryo Hisatsune (No. 79).
  • At No. 85 in the FedExCup, Adam Scott will make his tournament debut at the 3M Open; Scott’s best finish in 15 starts this season is a T12 at the U.S. Open.

Was Nate a Plumber or a Mailman? Asking for a friend named JJ.

Hoops @HoopMixOnly

NBA players in the 70s were built different. This was Nate Thurmond at age 25.

All hail Big Mike’s take on Hall of Fame inductee Ichiro #baseballhof

Funhouse @BackAftaThis

In the span of 60 seconds, Ichiro went from having no shot to get into the Hall of Fame to being a LOCK for the Hall of Fame once Mike Francesa learned he has "three thousand American hits."
