Sahith Theegala opened the 3M Open with a bogey-free 5-under 66, which matched him for tied for sixth. He hit nine of fourteen fairways and fifteen of eighteen greens, demonstrating his improved off-the-tee game.
He’ll play alongside Nick Dunlap and Keegan Bradley in Round 2. Other prominent players include Jacob Bridgeman, who leads at 8-under 63, and Tony Finau, who is one stroke back. Theegala’s goal is to defeat the course rather than the field, making this a “revenge week” for him. During a recent post-round 1 interview, he cleared this.
I'm not even worried about the score, I just want to beat the golf course.Sahith Theegala after Round 1
Theegala, who previously struggled at TPC Twin Cities, is now enthusiastic to play the course after recent changes. He is 12th in strokes gained off the tee and around the green. Theegala is presently ranked sixth in the FedEx Cup rankings and hopes to make the cut and play all four days.
