TPC Twin Cities, site of this week’s 3M Open in Blaine, Minnesota, was designed by Arnold Palmer in consultation with Tom Lehman and opened in 2000.
The private course was the site of the PGA Tour Champions’ 3M Championship from 2001 through 2018, at which time the course was renovated and the PGA Tour moved in for 2019. The course can be stretched to 7,513 yards and normally plays to a par of 72, but the pros play it as a par 71 for the 3M Open.
TPC Twin Cities should present a birdie fest this week. In the two years since the PGA Tour began playing the layout, the winning scores were 19 under (Michael Thompson in 2019) and 21 under (Matthew Wolff in 2020).
