Scottie Scheffler, the world's top-ranked golfer, seeks his first win since January 25 at the 2026 3M Open taking place at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minn. This tournament, starting Thursday, features a challenging par-71, 7,431-yard course. Scheffler enters as the +260 favorite at FanDuel Sportsbook, while defending champion Kurt Kitayama is listed at +2500 alongside notable contenders like Maverick McNealy (+2700), Hideki Matsuyama (+3000), and Tom Kim (+3000).

Brady Kannon, a seasoned golf betting expert with over 30 years in the industry, has made his predictions for the tournament. Kannon has successfully identified eight major winners since 2013 and recently hit on Matt Fitzpatrick at 15-1 for the Valspar Championship. Currently, he focuses on the 2026 3M Open, providing insights on best bets, prop bets, and golfers to avoid.

One significant prediction from Kannon is to fade Max Homa, who stands at 55-1. Kannon expresses concern about Homa's inconsistency, noting his inability to maintain form over four rounds despite a recent runner-up finish at the John Deere Classic. He highlights Homa's ranking of 107th in Driving Accuracy and 120th in SG: Approach, emphasizing that while Homa has potential, betting on him at this price may not be justified.

Kannon also hints at a longshot pick around 90-1, whom he describes as "good with the driver." For those interested in detailed betting strategies and insights, Kannon's full analysis is available at SportsLine.
