2026 3M Open Betting Preview21 jul44 min

The major championship season is over, but the PGA Tour rolls on with the 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities. Matt Brown, Wes Reynolds, and Kelley Bydlon recap Ryan Fox's surprising Open Championship victory at Royal Birkdale before turning their attention to one of the most volatile events on the PGA Tour calendar.

The crew breaks down everything you need to know about TPC Twin Cities, including why water hazards dominate the strategy, the key statistics to target, and whether distance or accuracy matters more off the tee. They also discuss Scottie Scheffler's chances as a massive favorite and whether bettors should attack the "Without Scheffler" market instead.

Plus, the guys reveal their favorite outright bets, sleepers, and value plays for the week, including Doug Ghim, Max Homa, Ben Kohles, Jordan Smith, John Keefer, William Mouw, Tom Kim, Jesper Svensson, Joel Dahmen, and more.
