With major season over, the PGA Tour is back in action this week at the 2024 3M Open in Minnesota, and we’re picking a star from the Open as our long shot to win. Here’s our long-shot pick, the 3M Open odds, betting favorites and everything else you need to know.
3M Open odds: Long-shot bet
For this week’s event in Minnesota, we’re selecting Thriston Lawrence as our long-shot pick at +6600 odds-to-win.
The South African pro broke out in a big way at last week’s Open Championship at Royal Troon, contending for the win right until the end, eventually finishing in solo fourth three shots behind winner Xander Schauffele.
But Lawrence is no stranger to winning. He’s captured four DP World Tour victories since 2021.
Now ranked No. 71 in the Official World Golf Ranking, Lawrence has a great chance to make another ranking leap this week at the 3M Open.
If you entrust $10 on Lawrence to win and he pulls it off, you’ll earn $660. For insurance, consider placing additional small bets on Lawrence to finish top 10 and top 20.
Looking for more long-shot bets for the 3M Open? This week’s honorable mentions are Jake Knapp (+6600) and Beau Hossler (+6600).
3M Open odds: The favorites
The betting favorite for this week’s 3M Open is former champion Tony Finau, who comes into the week with +1000 odds-to-win.
Open contender Sam Burns is in the second position at +1800, and Sahith Theegala and Akshay Bhatia are tied at +2200 odds-to-win.
