After 36 holes of the 2024 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities, Canadian Taylor Pendrith (12 under) has built a two-shot lead over Matthew NeSmith (10 under). Pendrith is already a winner on the PGA Tour this season, as he hoisted the hardware at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson.
In all, there are 16 players 7 under or better including Sam Burns (7 under, five back), Sahith Theegala (7 under, five back) and Gary Woodland (7 under, five back).
Even though there are several big names lurking on the leaderboard, there are some notable players who are leaving Blaine, Minnesota, a few days early.
Daniel Berger, who is on a bit of a skid at the moment, leads the way after missing the cut by one shot.
The two-day cutdown came in at 2-under 140.
Here are the 10 notables who missed the cut at the 3M Open.
