PGA 3m Open Twin Cities Futures Bets

This week, the PGA TOUR has the 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities for the fifth time.

TPC Twin Cities is a 7,431-yard par 71 golf course designed by Arnold Palmer. It's quite flat and has bentgrass greens. While the fairways are easier to hit than the TOUR average, there are water hazards on 13 of the 18 holes, which players must be careful about.

A total of 156 golfers will be participating in the 3M Open, and after the first two rounds, the top 65 players and ties will continue to play over the weekend. Some notable golfers in the tournament include Jason Day, Tony Finau, Sungjae Im, Cameron Young, Ludvig Aberg, Sepp Straka, Hideki Matsuyama, and Justin Thomas.

The model breakdown for this course is as follows
Driving Distance 25%
Putting 14%
Driving Accuracy 21%
Around The Green 14%
Approach 25%

We can find some good prices at these smaller events. Because of that I am making a lot of picks. We will be risking 0.5 units in all. I hope to hit at least one bet to make it a nice weekend.

The emphasis is on the last 24 rounds the golfer has played. These are the best values, not necessarily the best golfers this week. As always, I play these bets to win 1 unit. It limits your risk, which is what we want to do on longshot futures types of bets.
