With all four majors concluded, the 2025 PGA Tour is ramping up as the FedEx Cup Playoffs approach, starting with the 2025 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities in the Minneapolis area. Following the British Open, many leading golfers are taking a break this week, leaving the field relatively open. Only one of the top 20 players will be participating on Thursday, hinting at potentially unexpected outcomes in PGA bets.
Maverick McNealy, ranked No. 18, is currently third on the odds list for the 2025 3M Open at +2000. He is outpaced by co-favorites Chris Gotterup and Sam Burns at +1800. Gotterup, previously ranked outside of the top 150, has surged up to No. 27 following a victory at the Scottish Open and a third-place finish at The Open. Longshot fan favorites to consider this week include Tony Finau and Rickie Fowler, both at +4000. Other contenders to watch include Wyndham Clark (+2500), Max Greyserman (+2800), Jake Knapp (+2800), and Si Woo Kim (+3100).

2025 3M Open Predictions
One of the model’s unexpected predictions for the 2025 3M Open is that Wyndham Clark (25-1), last year’s U.S. Open champion, will not finish in the top 10. With many water hazards on the course, precision is crucial, and historically, Clark struggles with this aspect, ranking 138th in driving accuracy.
Despite recent successes in the UK, Clark has struggled in North American events, finishing outside the top 50 in seven of his last eight appearances.
Another surprising pick is Emiliano Grillo, a longshot at 50-1, who has previously finished in the top 10 at the 3M Open. Grillo’s recent form, with five top 25 finishes in his last eight tournaments, signifies a promising outlook for his chances.
For the best bets for the 2025 3M Open, the model suggests backing four players with odds of +4000 or higher. For complete insights from the model, visit SportsLine.
