Tony Finau has successfully made the cut at the 3M Open 2024. The 6th edition of the tournament is being held at TPC Twin Cities from Thursday, July 25 to 28.
Finau scored 4-under 67 in the first round of the 3M Open. He scored five birdies against a bogey on the first day. He was tied at T31 and looked comfortable to make the cut. In the second round, he scored 2-under 69 and made the Friday cut. Finau scored an eagle, and five birdies against five bogeys in the round.
After the end of the round, he had an aggregate score of 6-under 136. Finau was tied at 18th position with Maverick McNealy, Adam Svensson, Emiliano Grillo, Ben Silverman, Mackenzie Hughes, K.H. Lee, and Scott Piercy.
Taylor Pendrith jumped 16 places after 7-under 64 in the second round and is now on the top of the leaderboard with a score of 12-under 130. Matt NeSmith is two shots behind him and positioned second. Andrew Putman and Jacob Bridgeman are tied for the third with a score of 9-under 133.
The winner of the 3M Open will take home $1.458 million of the total prize purse of $8.1 million. Finau would look to score in the low 60s in the third round to have a shot at the prize money in the final round.
Tony Finau's last PGA Tour victory came at the 2024 Mexico Open which he won by three strokes over Jon Rahm. He is deprived of a victory this year and he'd look to claim one. Finau will tee off at 11:11 am ET with Mackenzie Hughes and K.H. Lee.
