Vegas wins 3M Open in Blaine

(Blaine, MN) — Jhonattan Vegas made a two-putt birdie from nearly 100-feet away on the par-five 18th hole and won the 3-M Open by one-shot over Max Greyserman. This was the fourth P-G-A Tour win over Vegas’ career, but his first since 2017. He says it doesn’t seem seven years since his last win, but he’s glad he got one. He finished third at the 3-M Open two years ago and says the T-P-C Twin Cities course fits his game well because he is a good driver of the golf ball. He finished his four rounds at 17-under-par. Greyserman shot a final round 63 to shoot up the leaderboard and finish in second-place all by himself. Matt Kuchar was third, tied with Maverick McNealy. Former Gophers Erik van Rooyen and Ben Warian each missed the cut, as did Spring Lake Park graduate Troy Merritt and Fargo’s Tom Hoge. Defending champion Lee Hodges also missed the cut.
