You think golf is a funny game?
Jul 22, 2020 Wolff is back this year and listed at 28-1 in the latest 2020 3M Open odds from William Hill. May 17, 2019; Bethpage, NY, USA; Bubba Watson plays his shot from the sixth tee during the second. 3M Open Picks & Predictions. Kyle Porter, of CBS Sports, is going with Harris English.
Dustin Johnson didn't break 80 on Thursday or Friday at the Memorial, and yet here he is, sitting as the betting favorite at the 3M Open. Clearly, the bookies aren't too concerned with DJ's deplorable performance, and frankly, I'm not so sure they should be.
Rather than subject himself to the calamity that ensued over the weekend at Jack's Place — where the scoring average ballooned to 75.93 during Sunday's final round — Johnson was able to recharge his batteries and will be eager to start anew.
A look at the 3M Open odds sets the stage for what's on tap.
Joining Dustin this week at the par-71 layout at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, MN (converted from a par-72) are Brooks Koepka and Tony Finau, plus we'll get our first look at Tommy Fleetwood since he missed the cut at the Arnold Palmer Invitational back in March.
Once you get past the heavy hitters at the top, you'll notice a lot of the value that's usually attached to some 'lesser names' has completely vanished before our eyes.
For example, take Doc Redman, an intriguing young player who was priced at +8000 to win the Memorial. Despite shooting a couple of 76s and missing the cut by five, the top golf betting sites have slashed Doc's odds in half.
Matthew Wolff lived up to the hype in just the third start of his professional career, winning the 2019 3M Open off a sponsor's exemption.
Talk about winning your first event in dramatic fashion on July 4th weekend; there was no shortage of excitement down the stretch last year in Blaine. After Bryson DeChambeau made eagle on the 72nd hole to get into the clubhouse at 20-under-par, Wolff drained a 26-footer of his own for eagle to post -21.
In a matter of just over a month, Matthew had gone from winning the NCAA Men's Individual Championship to hoisting a trophy on the PGA Tour.
Last Year's Winning Score: -21, 263
Last Year's Cut Line: -3 (139)
My 3M Open Pick
Some are saying Tony Finau 'collapsed' over the weekend, but I'm saying he was just a little bit off on what was a brutally difficult golf course. Let's not forget how beautifully Tony was playing (-12 thru 47 holes) or how steady this guy has been.
To say Finau has been knocking on the door to notch his second victory on tour would be quite the understatement.
Not only did Finau lead the field in birdies last week at the Memorial (21), but he led the field in putts per GIR and finished 5th in SG: Putting. With the way this guy is striping the ball, this is a scary combo that's bound to produce some seriously low scores.
Head to Bovada to place this bet where Tony's 3M Open odds are a bit more enticing.

3M Open Course – TPC Twin Cities
- 7,114 Yards
- Par 72
- Bentgrass Greens
Debuting on the Tour schedule last year, this week will mark only the second time TPC Twin Cities has hosted a PGA Tour event. With minimal rounds at the venue, course history at TP C Twin Cities is especially thin .
Arnold Palmer designed the Par 72 course, and tournament officials have stretched it a few extra football fields so it will play 7,468 yards for the pros. At least six of the par 4s and par 5s play left to right. There's little angulation, but water is in play on many of the holes.
There might be water but that doesn't mean it will be difficult to navigate. The fairways are wide, so look for golfers who can take advantage of the course with their irons and ball-striking.
In its first rendition, then-rookie Matthew Wolff was able to grab his first win on the PGA Tour by shooting 21-under despite only an average putting performance. Wolff dominated with his irons and approach shots, gaining 13.3 strokes tee-to-green.
Betting Favorites at The 3M Open
Dustin Johnson +1100 headlines the tournament one week after an abysmal week where he failed to break 80 in his two rounds at the Memorial. Good thing he wasn't on the course Sunday, which featured US Open-like carnage throughout the final round. Sitting below Johnson at sportsbooks are Tony Finau and BrooksKoepka each +1200, followed by Paul Casey and Tommy Fleetwood +1600,Lucas Glover +2000, Bubba Watson +25000, and defending champion Matthew Wolff +3300.
While I typically stay away from the top of the betting board, I'm making an exception for the 3M Open, which features arguably the weakest field we've seen in 2020. Guys like Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka should be able to show their dominance and make the course their playground even without their A-game.
There's a case to made for backing Brooks Koepka but his form is lacking compared to Johnson's. Koepka has only one top-10 finish this season and he was lucky to stick around through the weekend at the Memorial. Though Koepka didn't play well here a year ago, it's worth noting that many of the top golfers were using the 3M Open to tune-up their games ahead of the 2019 Open Championship. I expect a more valiant effort for Koepka this time around but I prefer making Koepka a PGA DFS play rather than an outright bet.
As for Finau, his odds are down to +1200 a week after opening +7000. The field is weak but I can't stomach the short odds when Johnson is available at +1100.

Fleetwood, who is always worthy of consideration, makes his first appearance on American soil since the Honda Classic. I'll let him get acclimated to the new scene before adding him to a betting card.

3M Open PGA Golf Betting Picks
Dustin Johnson +1100 (FanDuel) – It won't make for a sexy pick but I'm going straight to the top to bet on Dustin Johnson +1100. Johnson skipped the 3M Open in its debut but I expect him to use the tournament to quickly return to form after his embarrassing showing. It absolutely wouldn't surprise me of Johnson walks away with his second win in three tournaments this Sunday.
[Bet on Dustin Johnson +1100 at FanDuel Sportsbook now!]
Matthew Wolff +3300 (FOX Bet) – I'll close this range by betting on Wolff to defend his title. Of course, this isn't the kind of value we found on Wolff in 2019 but the 21-year-old just had a sneaky good performance at the Memorial. After recording a quadruple-bogey on the third hole and a triple-bogey on no. 16 in Round 1, Wolff fought back to make the cut and finished T22. Let's not forget Wolff nearly earned his second Tour victory just two weeks ago at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.

3M Open Mid-Tier Betting Picks
Erik Van Rooyen +4500 (FOX Bet) – Van Rooyen jumps out at +4500 on FOX Bet after two top-25s in his last three tournaments. Van Rooyen spent his college career at the University of Minnesota, so he's familiar with the area and should feel at home. Van Rooyen spoke about the upcoming tournament to Minnesota's Star Tribune, saying 'I'm stoked. I'm obviously very grateful for the invitation. This one will be special for me because it is somewhat of a homecoming. It's a track that I love, a track that I have so many fond memories of playing with my old teammates.'
Earlier this season, Van Rooyen proved he could keep up with star golfers like Johnson and Koepka at the WGC Mexico Championship, where the Gopher finished third. A win will make Van Rooyen the second sponsor exemption to win at the 3M in as many years.
