Summary

The 3M Open may have a weaker field than what we've been treated to since golf returned, but fret not First Cut fans as we still have a great preview podcast lined up. Rick Gehman and Kyle Porter tag team today's podcast looking at the 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities. Brooks Koepka's knee will be under a microscope this week after he revealed last week that issues were still lingering there. Is this a time to fade the most dominant major player over the past three years (0:58)? We also look at another PGA Tour superstar that is coming off a poor performance. How much confidence do we have in Dustin Johnson after his abysmal 80-80 performance last week at the Memorial (10:59). Tommy Fleetwood is making his first start since the pandemic halted the Players mid-tournament in March. Can we expect any rust from the Englishman (16:22)? After the break our boys breakdown their betting cards. We'll go through matchups (25:49), expert picks including sleepers (40:14) and best bets (48:07) for the week. ————————— Want to win $1,000 without putting any of your own cash at stake?
