The 3M Open begins Thursday with less fanfare than previous tournaments on the PGA Tour.
Brooks Koepka, Tony Finau, Dustin Johnson and Tommy Fleetwood are the biggest names taking part at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minnesota, with other major players taking the week off before the World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational and PGA Championship.
That leaves the door open for some lesser-known names to capture the spotlight, much like Matthew Wolff did when he won the inaugural 3M Open in 2019.
The list of potential unlikely champions begins with a pair of players in the first threesome and includes golfers who have turned in some decent rounds of late.
