Collin Morikawa's Open Championship victory made him just the sixth golfer to post multiple wins in the 2020-21 PGA Tour season. It has been a season marked by parity and only one of those six golfers will have a chance to become the first three-time winner at the 2021 3M Open. Stewart Cink is the only multi-winner as part of the 3M Open 2021 field, as Cink has more wins this season than he had over the previous dozen years combined. The 2009 British Open champion is one of a handful of major champions in the field as play begins on Thursday, July 22.
TPC Twin Cities, located in a Minneapolis suburb, will host the 2021 3M Open as the PGA Tour begins its stretch run to the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Dustin Johnson is the 7-1 favorite on the 2021 3M Open odds board at William Hill Sportsbook, while both Tony Finau and Louis Oosthuizen come in at 14-1. Cink, meanwhile, is a 50-1 long shot to get his third victory of the season according to the PGA odds board. Before locking in your 2021 3M Open picks, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine's proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed last June. In fact, it's up over $10,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
At the 2021 Open Championship, McClure's best bets included Collin Morikawa winning outright even though he was listed as a massive 40-1 long shot. He was also all over Daniel Berger (+220) and Emiliano Grillo (+700) finishing inside the top-20. McClure's best bets netted over $2,200 at the 2021 Open Championship.
In addition, McClure's model was all over Jon Rahm's (10-1) first career major championship victory at the 2021 U.S. Open. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the weekend, but the model still projected him as the winner. And at the 2021 Masters, McClure nailed Rahm's (+250) top-five finish in his best bets, as well as Corey Conners' (+550) top-10 showing.
This same model has also nailed a whopping seven majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now that the 2021 3M Open field is locked, SportsLine simulated the event 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected 2021 3M Open leaderboard and 3M Open 2021 expert picks.
The model's top 2021 3M Open predictions
One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2021 3M Open: Reed, a nine-time PGA Tour winner and one of the top favorites, struggles and barely cracks the top five. Reed remains one of the best putters on tour, ranking inside the top-10 in strokes gained: putting (.674), overall putting average (1.554), total putting (84.8) and one-putt percentage (44.28).
However, the former Masters champion is hitting fewer than 63 percent of greens in regulation this season, which ranks 169th on tour. His inability to find the green in regulation has resulted in Reed finishing T-25 or worse in each of his last three starts. He's also missed the cut in three of his last nine events. He's not a strong pick to win it all and there are far better values in the 3M Open 2021 field.
Another surprise: Sergio Garcia, a 28-1 long shot, makes a strong run at the 2021 3M Open title. The veteran should enter the tournament with plenty of confidence after shooting a 66 in the final round of the Open Championship and posting a top-20 finish. It was Garcia's third straight top-20 finish as he's seemed to rediscover his groove after missing the cut in his previous four tournaments.
Garcia has shown great balance this season both off the tee and when approaching the green. He's the only player on tour who ranks in the top 16 in both driving distance (308.6) and greens in regulation percentage (69.54). As has been the case for most of his career, Garcia has been extremely aggressive in going for the green as his 75.25 percentage ranks second. That has allowed him to sink 217 birdies and breaking par will be paramount at the 2021 3M Open as the winning score of the tournament averages to 20-under-par.
How to make 2021 3M Open picks
The model is targeting five other golfers with 2021 3M Open odds of 28-1 or higher to make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these underdogs could hit it big. You can only see them here.
