It’s back to American soil this week. After all the good things that happened across the pond in The Open Championship, the 2020-21 PGA TOUR will continue in Minnesota, with the third edition of the 3M Open. Some of the best golfers in the world won’t be playing in this event, as some of them will take a rest from The Open, while the others will be heading to Japan for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Still, there will be talented golfers competing for the top prize in the 2021 3M Open. Learn more about the purse and the breakdown of prizes of this tournament below.
The purse for this year’s edition of the 3M Open remains unchanged. It’s still the same as last year’s which was won by Michael Thompson. He won the tournament by two strokes better than runner-up Adam Long. Thompson finished with a score of 19-under 265 to take home $1.88 million. The 3M Open was first held in 2019, with Matthew Wolff winning it by a stroke over runner-ups Bryson DeChambeau and Collin Morikawa. Wolff ended up with $1.152 million for his victory.
