Before going through the pond for both Scottish Open and The Open Championship, we were in the middle of the “Midwest Birdie-Fest” in PGA Tour-and now we are back. Blaine, minesota specially, in TPC twin cities ABOUT 3 million openOnce only two weeks of the regular season remain before we go down to the last 70 players in the FedExcup Points rankings and start the FedExcup Play off.
This will mark the seventh-3m open edition in the tournament and the average winning result of the previous six events has only been a shadow less than 19 under the same time-so it has not always been a complete bird celebration, but it can take that way. Just two seasons ago, Lee Hodges won here with the score 24 under the money. Golf dragoner Jeff Sherman at the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas has made the proposal of winning outcome this week under/over 264.5, or 19.5 under the money.
The golf course is very determined a standard of TPC type. Straight roads are lined with trees and relatively wide. Water enters the game in 15 holes and has 72 sandy bunkers on the course. The greens are above average in size and are bentgrass. TPC Gemini Cities is an Arnold Palmer design with some changes made in 2018 by the locals of Minnesota Tom Lehman and Tim Herron. The course will play in a par 71 this week and extend to over 7,400 yards. There are three par 5s accessible and some 4s that measure less than 400 yards.
We’ve seen all kinds of well -removed players here, but it has been mostly bombs that have won. Large hitters like Tony Finau, Cameron Champ and Matthew Wolff have everyone won here, and another great Hitter, Jhonatan Vegas, is the protective champion. I looked at the blows won: outside this week and the blows won: the ball hit. I also leaned a lot in total driving (a combination of length and accuracy outside tee). I used birds or better won, won strokes: par 5s, strokes won: Bentgrass) and the way players performed in the short 4s, measuring between 350-400 yards.
2025 3m Open Chances: The US Ryder Cup hopes among betting favorites
Kevin Cunningham
With this tournament that is relatively new on the tournament, we do not have a great course history or any really strong connection with other courses that have developed, though I definitely believe it has some meaning. For or similarities in submitting and skill requirements or similarities in leadership chart results, I have used Detroit Golf Club (Rocket Mortgage), National PGA (Cognant Classic), Country Club of Jackson (Sanderson Farms), El Cardinal in Diamonds and TPC Deere Run, home for John Deere Classic.
Taylor Pendrith (35-1)
Before losing cutting last week in northern Ireland, Pendrith had been in a very beautiful run. He was the 13th a week ago in The Scottish Open, who proved to be a bomber paradise in 2025, and again in May he took the fifth in the PGA Championship – Quail Hollow being another course that fits the bomber and certainly emphasizes the total driving. Pendrith ranks 24th in tours in that category. He is very strong in all statistics this week and ended fifth here last year. He has also been as high as the Detroit Golf Club competitor.
Max Grayserman (35-1)
I’ve been anti-MAX for a while now, but this week, hope my time is right. Grayserman is a very good player, but he has simply failed to close the door. He completed last month’s race in Detroit for what was his fourth end of the race in a 12-month extension. He was a racing here in Minnesota last season. This feels like a very good course for him to finally score that first PGA Tour victory. During the last 24 rounds, he is the 14th in this field for SG: Ball Staring, 16th for SG: Access, 14th for SG: Bentgrass), and 13th in birds or won better.
Emiliano Grillo (50-1)
Grillo has ended up to eight in PGA National and fifth at the Jackson club seat. He was a competitor here in TPC Gemini in 2022 and was twice the John Deere Classic competitor, including just a few weeks ago. He is not so long, but he is very accurate and ranks 16th on the tours on total driving. Grillo is the fourth in this field for SG: Access, the second in SG: Ball Staring, and ranks 11th for birds or better earned.

Kevin Yu (50-1)
It was here in this column last fall that we went down to Yu to win the championship Sanderson Farms. Yu hits it long and right, ranking eighth on tours on total driving. He lost the cut last week in his first open championship, but the form has been strong, with two ends of Top-5 in the last two months. During the last 24 rounds, it ranks 17th in this field for SG: Ball Staring, Sixth for SG: Off the tee, and is 10th for birds or better earned.
Rico Hoey (60-1)
You will find the name of Hoey at the top of the list, ranking no. 1 on tours on total driving. In this area, he is the 13th for SG: Ball Staring, the seventh for SG: off the tee, 41 per SG: Bentgrass), and is 36th in par 4s, measuring 350-400 yards. Hoey has finished 11 balls in two of his last three beginnings in the tournament.
Andrew Putnam (70-1)
It was the 2018 Barracuda championship where Putnam captured his first and only PGA Tour victory. He returned to the crime scene last week and ended in 11th place. He finished 8 ball twice last month and again in March, he received the 11th in PGA National. He was the 19th and 11th here in the TPC twin cities. I believe he has a good course and current form. During the last 24 rounds, Putnam ranks 28th in this field for SG: Access and is sixth in front 4s. He is the sixth in the tournament in the accuracy of the direction and 15 for SG: setting.
Kevin Roy (110-1)
We almost reached a play off with Roy a few weeks ago on John Deere Classic, but he turned out a short shot. The form is certainly good even though that the third place end was its second direct Top-10, the other coming to Detroit Golf Club ago. Roy ranks fourth in the tours of total driving and is second in the field with the approach over the last 24 rounds. He is the sixth in SG: Ball Staring and the 13th in the short 4s.
