3M Open: Power ranking the top 10 at TPC Twin Cities
Kevin Na is a recent winner at the Charles Schwab Challenge in May. He took down Colonial and a few weeks later was solo sixth at the Korean Open. He’ll look to extend his hot streak and contend for the first-ever 3M Open title this week, and you’d do well not to sleep on his chances.
Na has three top-10s on the PGA Tour with a T5 at the WGC-Match Play and T10 at the RBC Heritage.
He’s fared better on shorter courses, so we’ll see if he can translate his recent form to a long, but likely benign TPC Twin Cities.
Na is 20th on Tour in strokes gained around the green. He’s surprisingly ninth in eagles but 149th in birdie average.
Na is 31st in sand saves, which could be helpful around here. He’s also ninth in approaches from 125-150 and 42nd from 150-175.
Na is coming off a week of rest after his one-week jaunt to Asia.
He’s got a reputation as a grinder and I like his ability to stick it out if conditions get nasty.
