3M Open 2023 Betting Preview
25 July 2023
The four major golf championships are now over, but that doesn’t mean the action on the PGA Tour is going to be slowing down. While some of the biggest names are taking the weekend off after playing in England, some players will still be teeing it up this weekend in Minnesota.
The 3M Open is set to take place this weekend at TPC Twin Cities, and it was first introduced in July 2019. This is an important event for those that are on the cusp of making the FedEx Playoffs, and that is why some top players will be playing.
Here is a look at the betting odds for the 3M Open and a Dunkel betting pick and prediction for how it will play out.
Four Favorites at the Top
Anytime that you are going to be wagering on golf, you are going to want to take a look at the betting odds when it comes to the favorites. You won’t see the biggest names in golf for this event, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t some great players.
Here is a look at the four golfers that are currently the betting favorites to win the 3M Open this weekend:
- Tony Finau +1600
- Sungjae Im +1600
- Hideki Matsuyama +1600
- Cameron Young +1600
All four of these golfers have had some success at the major golf tournaments this year, but they weren’t able to capture a title. With some valuable FedEx Cup points on the table this weekend, these four golfers will be looking to win a title.
Finau is a player that is extremely consistent, while the other three players in this group have proven that they can put up a very low score at times. You should expect to see at least one of these players in the mix heading into Sunday.
Strong Contenders in the Mix
Even though betting on the favorites is never a bad play when it comes to golf, you should also explore the betting odds for the top contenders as well. With that in mind, here are some of the top contenders expected to challenge for a win in Minnesota:
- Sepp Straka +2200
- Emiliana Grillo +2500
- Ludvig Aberg +2800
- Justin Thomas +2800
- Cam Davis +3000
- Gary Woodland +3500
- Adam Hadwin +3500
It’s no surprise to see Sepp Straka as a top contender, as he put up a great showing at the Open Championship. Justin Thomas, at +2800, is a golfer that offers a ton of value, but he has really struggled of late.
Straka Gets it Done
This is going to be a wildly competitive and exciting weekend of golf in Minnesota, and the leaderboard is going to be crowded. You should expect that this title will be won by two shots are less, and that will make it extremely exciting.
Hideki Matsuyama and Tony Finau should both be in the mix at TPC Twin Cities, but they won’t have what it takes to win. Instead, it will be a rising star on the PGA Tour in Sepp Straka that comes up with another win.
If you are going to make a wager on the 3M Open, then taking Sepp Straka to win the title this weekend at +2200 is the best way to wager.
