Monday qualifiers: 3M Open

History was made at the 3M Open Monday qualifier as Daniel Gale shot a course-record 60 at Victory Links Golf Club, including a nearly impossible slam-dunk, hole-out eagle on 18 from 128 yards. Gale earns a spot at the 3M Open for the second consecutive year, both times advancing through the Monday qualifier.

The eagle locked in Gale's spot in the 3M Open as he posted a 28 on the back nine. His score of 60 is five shots clear of the nearest qualifier. Four players carded 6-under 65: Sam Harned, Kaito Onishi, Alex Gaugert and Noah Hofman, requiring a 4-for-3 playoff to fill out the field.

Onishi, Gaugert and Hofman earned 3M Open tee times via the playoff. Harned was the odd man out.

Monday's open qualifier was contested at Victory Links Golf Course in Blaine, Minnesota.

In all, 69 players teed it up, vying for four spots in this week’s field. The 3M Open, played at TPC Twin Cities, is the second-to-last event of the FedExCup Regular Season.
