Atwal finishes 23rd; Wolff eagles 72nd to win his maiden title

BLAINE, MINNESOTA: Arjun Atwal was unable to turn in the magic he had for the rest of the week, starting from the Monday qualifiers, as he shot one-under 70 and slipped to Tied-23rd at the inaugural 3M Open on Sunday. 

But his superb performance on Monday and then from Thursday onwards did earn him a spot into this week’s John Deere Classic, the last event to try and earn a sport into The Open. Atwal’s 70 gave him a total of 13-under and his T-23rd was his best finish of the season.

However, the day belonged to the 20-year-old, Matt Wolff, who was playing only his third event as a pro and only the fourth PGA event ever. Wolff trailing Bryson DeChambeau by a shot on the 18th fairway, not just caught up but overhauled the leader with a stunning 26-foot putt for 263 that gave him his first PGA Tour win.
