Thompson, Werenski share lead at 3M Open. MORE:
BLAINE, Minn. — Michael Thompson and Richy Werenski maintained their momentum at the 3M Open.
In warmer and windier conditions on the quiet, spectator-free course, the scores crept up after Werenski led the first-round pack with an 8-under 63. The 24-year-old, who's winless on the PGA Tour, followed up with a 67. Thompson caught him with a 66. Koepka, at the other end of the board, was on the who's-who list of players to miss the cut. The four-time major champion shot a 71 to finish at 1 under, pulling a birdie putt attempt wide right on the 18th that would have extended his stay in Minnesota.
Finau, who had an eagle on No. 6, saved two of his four birdies for the final three holes. On the 18th, he stayed away from the water that Johnson hit three straight times Thursday and produced a downwind approach shot out of the rough that landed on the green about 5 feet away. He sank the putt to finish for a 66 to get to 11 under.
“He was white, red, white, like a strawberry parfait,” Finau said. “I think it helped to keep things light. Looking at it, I was laughing just about every hole. I couldn’t get over how red his legs were. But as a caddie, he did tremendously well. He knows my game really well.” Michael Gligic, from Burlington, Ont., is the lone Canadian to make the cut following a 3-under 68 to get to 2 under through 36 holes.
