Wolff claimed his first PGA Tour victory at the 2019 3M Open, and although he has yet to win his second tournament, he has come awfully close. The California native finished runner-up to Bryson DeChambeau at the Rocket Mortgage Classic three weeks ago, so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/golf---futures\">he is 25-1<\/a> per the golf betting odds to win this tournament at BetOnline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Event Details<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Event:<\/strong> 3M Open<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Category:<\/strong> PGA Tour<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> July 23-26, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Location:<\/strong> TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minnesota<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Past Winner<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2019:<\/strong> Matthew Wolff -21<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Course<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the easiest courses on the PGA Tour, so the winner is likely to post a score of -20 or better. TPC Twin Cities was a mainstay on the Senior Tour until 2019, and there was only so much that the organizers could do to make this course ready for the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TPC Twin Cities should be slightly more difficult this year as the fairways have been narrowed on five holes. The rough will be at max height, and the greens might play fast according to the Stimpmeter readings before this tournament. However, the fairways and greens are both still very forgiving, so big hitters will have a much easier time on this course than they would in other events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Value Play to Win the Event: Bubba Watson +3300<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this bet was much juicier when Watson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/golf---futures\">opened at 40-1<\/a> on Monday, it is still the best play on the board in terms of value. Watson ranks eighth on the PGA Tour in driving distance with an average of 312.2 yards per drive, and he won\u2019t be punished for letting it rip on this course. He can bomb away without too much worry in comparison to other courses, so his paltry driving percentage won\u2019t be as much of a factor. The two-time Masters winner has won 12 PGA Tour events in his career, but we didn\u2019t see him at TPC Twin Cities last year as most of the tour\u2019s top golfers chose to miss this event. Watson rebounded from a 78 on Thursday at the Memorial to make the cut and finish 32<sup>nd<\/sup>, so that gives him confidence heading into this tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Top 10 Prop: Harris English +300<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With so many stars not taking part in this week\u2019s tournament due to its place in the PGA Tour schedule, Harris English has a great chance to finish in the top ten. English placed in the top six in four of his first five events this season, and he has nine top 20 finishes overall in 14 events. He ranks in the top 30 in five of the six major strokes gained categories, so that all-around game can come in handy here. English hasn\u2019t won on the PGA Tour in seven years, but he has a real chance to end that drought in Minnesota on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow our <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/betonline_ag\">BetOnline Twitter account<\/a> for the latest sports news and betting odds, and stay tuned on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/betonline_ag\/\">Instagram feed<\/a> for more good information too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matthew Wolff won the inaugural 3M Open last year, and he is one of the favorites to defend his title&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":12462,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12461","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12461","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12461"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12461\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12463,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12461\/revisions\/12463"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12462"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
