The 3M Open Is Here To Stay Through 2030

Bigger names, bolder experiences and bigger impact.
3M and the PGA TOUR have announced a five-year extension of 3M's title sponsorship of the 3M Open through 2030. The extension will continue to bring the world's top golfers to TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minn., and pave the way for even more community impact and support.
'We are thrilled to continue our partnership with 3M and a passionate Minnesota fan base that supports every sport in every season, including the 3M Open from day one,' said PGA TOUR Commissioner Jay Monahan. 'That same passion from 3M is on display each summer as they invest in their community and positively impact lives through the 3M Open.'
The 3M Open is a mechanism to give back to the community and demonstrate the many unexpected ways 3M Science improves lives while showcasing the world's greatest golfers. Since 2019, the 3M Open has donated more than $8 million to charity positively impacting more than one million lives. The tournament aligns with 3M's commitment to improve lives in communities where people live, work and learn.
'The 3M Open is more than a golf tournament — it's a force for good that brings people together around 3M innovation and supporting Minnesota communities,' said 3M CEO Bill Brown. 'Our title sponsorship and partnership with PGA TOUR showcases 3M Science for some of our most valued customers and partners while improving lives in our own backyard, and we look forward to continuing the 3M Open for years to come.'
The 2025 3M Open will be held July 21-27 at TPC Twin Cities, where Jhonattan Vegas is expected to defend his 2024 title. The 2025 event will be televised on CBS/Paramount+, Golf Channel, PGA TOUR LIVE on ESPN+ and distributed internationally via the TOUR's World Feed.
TPC Twin Cities was designed by World Golf Hall of Fame member Arnold Palmer, who worked in consultation with Minnesota native and PGA TOUR veteran Tom Lehman. 3M has supported the golf community for more than 30 years, including hosting the 3M Championship, a PGA TOUR Champions event at TPC Twin Cities, from 1993-2018.

Rory McIlroy Shares Troubling Message Ahead of U.S. Open

Rory McIlroy Shares Troubling Message Ahead of U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After a two-week hiatus from the PGA Tour following the PGA Championship, Rory McIlroy returned to action this week at the RBC Canadian Open—but his time in the tournament was short-lived. Advertisement McIlroy struggled mightily over both rounds, never finding a consistent rhythm across the 36 holes he played. He ultimately missed the cut—and by a wide margin. The 2025 Masters champion shot a 71 on Thursday followed by a disappointing 78 on Friday, finishing at nine-over par. The cut line stood at two-under. Now, with a chance to regroup ahead of the third major of the year—the U.S. Open at Oakmont—McIlroy offered a concerning message about his performance in Canada. "Of course it concerns me," McIlroy said on Friday after his round. "You don't want to shoot high scores like the one I did today. Still, I felt like I came here obviously with a new driver thinking that that sort of was going to be good and solve some of the problems off the tee, but it didn't."He continued, "Obviously, going to Oakmont next week, what you need to do more than anything else there is hit fairways. Still sort of searching for the sort of missing piece off the tee." Rory McIlroy lines up his tee shot on the 14th tee during the final round of the PGA Championship golf tournament at Quail Doster-Imagn Images Rory McIlroy has had an outstanding year by any measure. His most significant achievement came at Augusta National, where he captured his first Masters title and completed the career Grand Slam. He also added victories at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Players Championship to round out an impressive season. Advertisement However, in comments this week, McIlroy admitted that maintaining motivation has been a challenge since his win at Augusta. After chasing the Masters for more than a decade, he said it's been difficult to find that extra edge and drive to compete at the same level. "I would certainly say that the last few weeks—I've had a couple of weeks off—and going and grinding on the range for three or four hours everyday is maybe a little tougher than it used to be," he told reporters. "You have this event in your life that you've worked towards and it happens, sometimes it's hard to find the motivation to get back on the horse and go again."

Justin Thomas Sends Strong Message About Scottie Scheffler Ahead of U.S. Open

Justin Thomas Sends Strong Message About Scottie Scheffler Ahead of U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The third major of the year is set to begin on Thursday, and with players already arriving at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania, media duties have begun for many on the PGA Tour. Advertisement One player who spoke to the media was Justin Thomas, who has put together a solid 2025 campaign so far and will look to find success on the challenging Oakmont course. His best finish at the U.S. Open came in 2020, when he tied for eighth place. Thomas ended his winless drought since 2022 with a victory at the RBC Heritage in April. Despite that, he remains ranked No. 5 in the world. This week, he was asked a simple question about World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who has been dominant over the past two months on Tour and Thomas had a clear and in depth answer. Thomas was asked, 'What is Scottie Scheffler doing that is so special? What do you say?' Advertisement 'What is he doing?' Thomas replied. 'Well, everything.'

Every single aspect of his game is unbelievable. I think his mental game is better than anybody else's out here. To be able to play with those expectations and to stay present as often as he has—to me, that's maybe more impressive than even the golf he's playing. 'I just think it's so, so hard to do, and it's also hard to explain if you're in his shoes. He just doesn't make mistakes and almost lets himself be in contention rather than forcing it. He just seems to be playing better.' Scottie Scheffler has been the most dominant golfer in the world by a wide margin over the past two to three years. In a sport where consistency is notoriously difficult to maintain week to week, he has managed to do exactly that. Advertisement Scheffler has already recorded four PGA Tour wins this year, including a major victory at the PGA Championship. Remarkably, he has not missed a cut since 2022—his streak now stands at 56 consecutive events. He also enters the U.S. Open with seven straight top-10 finishes. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Scheffler is the clear favorite heading into the U.S. Open—a tournament he has yet to win. Trailing him on the odds board are defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Rory McIlroy.

Scottie Scheffler Has No Doubt Naming Hardest PGA Tour Course Before U.S. Open

Scottie Scheffler Has No Doubt Naming Hardest PGA Tour Course Before U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The top players in the world have arrived at Oakmont this week ahead of day one of the U.S. Open, which begins Thursday and marks the third major of the year on the PGA Tour. Advertisement One thing has been made clear over the first two days of practice: the course is brutally difficult—especially when players find themselves in the rough. Several stars, including Xander Schauffele, Bryson DeChambeau, Tyrrell Hatton, and Scottie Scheffler, have all commented on how thick and punishing the grass is around the greens. On Tuesday, Scheffler had zero doubt in calling Oakmont the hardest course he—and likely anyone else in the field—will ever play. "I kind of equate some of the major tests to... I mean, like the majors in tennis—you're playing on different surfaces: grass, clay, and then hard court—and it's a different style of game," Scheffler said. "The U.S. Open compared to the Masters is a completely different type of test. At the Masters, you have a lot more shot-making when you get around the green because it's mostly fairway. "And then when you get here, it's a lot of hacking out of the rough. You still have to be extremely precise, but when you talk about strength and power, I think that becomes more of a factor at these tournaments. Because when you hit it in the rough, you have to muscle it out of there." Scheffler added, "I mean, this is probably the hardest golf course that we'll play—maybe ever." Scheffler has had another remarkable year and is the undisputed world No. 1. After a historic 2024 campaign, he may not quite match that pace, but he's still on track for another legendary run in 2025. Advertisement He already has four tournament victories this season, including his first PGA Championship title—which marked his third career major win. Two of those three major victories have come at the Masters. The U.S. Open and The Open Championship are the final two tournaments Scheffler needs to win in order to complete the career Grand Slam—a feat Rory McIlroy accomplished earlier this year after winning at Augusta, becoming just the sixth player in history to do so. Scottie Scheffler addresses the crowd after winning the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday golf Doster-Imagn Images Scheffler skipped the RBC Canadian Open this past week to get in extra preparation for Oakmont, where the conditions could lead to some high scores. It wouldn't be surprising if only a handful of players finish at or just under par heading into Sunday.
