Round 1 Complete
End of Round Summary

Jesper Svensson leads after Round 1 at 6-under par, using an eagle at the 12th and six birdies to surge into the mix. Haotong Li’s 3-under par round was the day’s biggest move, jumping him from 43rd to 26th. Svensson and the other players at 6-under par are best positioned to contend next round. Next tee time 6:45am CT on Friday, July 24th.

July 24 at 12:06 AM

Haotong Li

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Haotong Li picked up another shot to reach 3-under par, and that bump sent him from 43rd to 26th on the board. It’s not a top-5 push, but it does keep him well inside the mix heading deeper into Thursday’s opening round.

July 23 at 11:54 PM

Jesper Svensson

Total: -6·R1: -6

Top 5

Jesper Svensson’s move to 6-under par pushed him from 9th into a tie for 5th, keeping him within three shots of Ben Kohles. With the leaderboard bunched behind a 9-under par pace, that jump puts him right in the opening-round chase.

July 23 at 11:42 PM

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen picked up another stroke to reach 5-under par and climb into a share of ninth. He's only four back of Ben Kohles, so the move keeps him close enough to matter if the leaders give anything back.

Trace Crowe

Total: -4·R1: -4

Double Bogey+

Trace Crowe's round ended on a sour note, with a double bogey at 18 knocking him from a share of 13th to 14th. He still finished at 4-under par, but that late stumble matters on a leaderboard where a single shot can separate a top-15 stay from a slide.

July 23 at 11:24 PM

Thomas Campbell

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Thomas Campbell was one of the sharper moves outside the main board, trimming a shot from even par to 1-under par and moving from 86th to 68th. At 8 holes in, he has a little momentum after starting the day well back.

Keita Nakajima

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Keita Nakajima kept his round moving at 3M, improving from 3-under par to 4-under par and climbing into 13th. He's still five shots behind Ben Kohles, but a strong opening stretch has him inside the top 20 and in the chase.

July 23 at 11:12 PM

Will Gordon

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Will Gordon was another mover in the chase pack, improving from 43rd to a share of 25th after his score dropped from 2-under par to 3-under par. It’s not a run at the lead yet, but it pushes him into the upper half of the opening board.

Seamus Power

Total: -3·R1: -3

Eagle

Seamus Power’s closing stretch did the damage: he holed an eagle at 18 to finish 3-under par and vault from 69th to a tie for 25th. He’s still six back of Ben Kohles, but the late burst put him squarely back on the first page of the board.

July 23 at 11:06 PM

Troy Merritt

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Troy Merritt kept rolling in the upper half of the board, easing from 11th to a tie for ninth at 5-under par. Birdies at 6, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 gave him a steady finish and kept him within striking distance after round one.

Ben Martin

Total: +1·R1: +1

Other

Outside the main board, Ben Martin was the day’s biggest mover, climbing from 117th to 102nd after closing at 1-over par. He mixed birdies at 12, 13 and 18 with a quadruple bogey at 2, enough to salvage some ground but not erase the early damage.

July 23 at 11:00 PM

Pontus Nyholm

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Pontus Nyholm has quietly climbed from 41st to T28 and is now 3-under par through 7. That leaves him six back of Ben Kohles, so he’s not near the lead yet, but he’s moved into a much healthier spot on a crowded first-round board.

July 23 at 10:54 PM

Neal Shipley

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Neal Shipley also made a notable leap, going from 40th to 28th and getting to 3-under par with four holes left. On a packed board, that kind of move can turn an average start into a legitimate check-in on the second page of the leaderboard.

Keita Nakajima

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Keita Nakajima was the biggest mover near the top, trimming another shot to reach 4-under par and climb from 27th to 11th in Round 1. He’s now inside the top 15, so the early leaders have a new name to watch if the scoring keeps moving.

July 23 at 10:48 PM

Tom Kim

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

After a steady Round 1, Tom Kim finished 3-under par and climbed from 39th to a tie for 27th. He’s six shots behind Ben Kohles, so the move matters, but he still has work to do before he gets close to the first-page names.

July 23 at 10:42 PM

Jimmy Stanger

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Jimmy Stanger is making a solid early charge through six holes. He picked up a shot to reach 4-under par, climbing from 26th into a tie for 12th and putting himself five behind Ben Kohles at the top of the board.

Gary Woodland

Total: -7·R1: -7

Other

Gary Woodland closed with a birdie at 18 and stayed in the thick of the race. He finished 7-under par, rising from a tie for fourth to a tie for second, and sits two shots behind Ben Kohles after Round 1.

July 23 at 10:30 PM

Billy Horschel

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Billy Horschel used a fast finish to move into a tie for 13th at 4-under par. He picked up birdies at 4, 5, 6 and 18, and his score now sits five shots behind Ben Kohles' 9-under par pace.

July 23 at 10:12 PM

Jesper Svensson

Total: -6·R1: -6

Eagle

Jesper Svensson's eagle at 12 powered the day's biggest move, lifting him from a tie for 12th into a tie for fourth at 6-under par. He's now three back of Ben Kohles, who still leads at 9-under par, and suddenly in the mix on the front page.

July 23 at 10:00 PM

Davis Chatfield

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Davis Chatfield made a quick move early, birdieing the 2nd to get to 4-under par and climb from a tie for 24th into a tie for 12th. With most of the round still ahead, he is suddenly inside the top 15 and in range to threaten the top 10.

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen added a birdie at 12 to reach 5-under par and continue his rise into a tie for ninth. He is now inside the top 10 after an eagle at 6 and four birdies, a strong opening that keeps him on the edge of the lead chase.

July 23 at 9:54 PM

Troy Merritt

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Troy Merritt's birdie at 14 lifted him from a tie for 23rd to a tie for 12th at 4-under par. He's now inside the top 15, five shots behind Ben Kohles, with four holes left to keep climbing.

Jackson Koivun

Total: -7·R1: -7

Other

Jackson Koivun's birdie at 16 moved him from a share of third to a share of second at 7-under par. He's two shots behind Ben Kohles and still in the mix after 16 holes in his opening round.

July 23 at 9:48 PM

Gary Woodland

Total: -6·R1: -6

Top 5

Gary Woodland’s steady start paid off as he moved from eighth to third at 6-under par through 15. That puts him inside the top 5 and gives him a real look at the leaders with most of the round still in play.

Ben Kohles

Total: -9·R1: -9

Lead Change

Ben Kohles turned a share of the lead into sole control with an eagle at 18, finishing 9-under par. The late burst pushed him two shots clear of Emiliano Grillo and made him the man to catch after Round 1.

July 23 at 9:36 PM

Gary Woodland

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Gary Woodland picked up another shot at 14 to reach 5-under par, moving from a tie for 12th into a tie for 8th. At 2 back of the co-leaders at 7-under par, he is suddenly well inside the pack that can still chase down the top before day’s end.

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen

Total: -4·R1: -4

Eagle

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen got an eagle at 6, but a bogey at 11 left him at 4-under par and sent him from a tie for 8th to a tie for 12th. He is still only three off the lead, but the extra swing cost him a spot among the top 10.

July 23 at 9:30 PM

Jesper Svensson

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Jesper Svensson made the same 11-place jump, going from a tie for 23rd to a tie for 12th after a gain at 10. At 4-under par, he’s suddenly part of the crowded chase group instead of the pack fighting to stay relevant.

Seamus Power

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Seamus Power turned a tie for 23rd into a tie for 12th with a one-shot gain at 12, and he’s now 4-under par. That puts him on the edge of the top 10 and keeps him in the mix if the leaders wobble on the back nine.

July 23 at 9:24 PM

Troy Merritt

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Troy Merritt was the biggest mover inside the main pack this poll, taking another shot off his card to reach 3-under par. That lifted him from 32nd to a tie for 23rd and got him back into the chase around the top-20 bubble.

Matti Schmid

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Matti Schmid kept the pressure on with a birdie at 7, backing up his earlier climb and nudging farther into the mix at the 3M Open. He’s now 5-under par in a tie for 8th, just a few shots from the leaders in the opening round.

July 23 at 9:18 PM

Preston Stout

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Preston Stout made the biggest outside-the-top-tier move, climbing 26 spots to 56th at 1-under par through 10. Birdies at 5 and 10 erased an early bogey at 2 and put him back in red figures after starting well outside the picture.

Jackson Koivun

Total: -6·R1: -6

Top 5

Jackson Koivun kept the pressure on with a birdie at 14, reaching 6-under par and vaulting from 7th to a tie for third. At one back of the co-leaders, he’s now squarely in the pack trying to turn a hot front nine into a real first-round threat.

July 23 at 9:12 PM

Brian Campbell

Total: -2·R1: -2

Other

Brian Campbell took another stroke off his card and climbed from 54th to a tie for 32nd at 2-under par. He’s five shots off the lead, so the move is more about staying in touch with the chase pack than making a real run at the top.

Keita Nakajima

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Keita Nakajima finished at 1-under par and made the day’s biggest outside-the-top-tier gain, rising from 81st to 56th. He’s still six shots off the co-leaders, but the one-shot improvement gets him well onto the board after starting even.

July 23 at 9:06 PM

Matti Schmid

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Matti Schmid added a birdie at 6 to reach 4-under par and surge from 22nd to 10th. He’s now inside the top 10 after starting the round outside the main picture, so he’s at least giving himself a chance to pressure the leaders if the scoring keeps moving.

July 23 at 9:00 PM

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen

Total: -4·R1: -4

Eagle

Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen’s eagle at 6 was the biggest jolt among the chasers. It lifted him from 3-under par to 4-under par and into a tie for 10th, keeping him in touch with the leaders despite starting outside the top 10.

Ben Kohles

Total: -7·R1: -7

Lead Change

Ben Kohles birdied 15 to reach 7-under par and join Emiliano Grillo at the top. He started the poll one shot back in second, so the late gain turned a solo chase into a shared lead with plenty of Round 1 still to play.

July 23 at 8:48 PM

Jesper Svensson

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Jesper Svensson’s birdies at 1, 6 and 7 added another shot and lifted him from 31st to a tie for 19th at 3-under par. That leaves him four back of Emiliano Grillo, but the quick start has him in the mix after a slow climb up the board.

Ben Kohles

Total: -6·R1: -6

Top 5

Ben Kohles birdied 14 to reach 6-under par, jumping from sixth into a tie for second and grabbing a spot inside the top 5. He’s one shot behind Emiliano Grillo’s 7-under-par lead, with plenty of time left in the opening round.

July 23 at 8:36 PM

Zac Blair

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Zac Blair went from even par to 1-under par and into a share of 50th after birdies at 4, 10 and 12. Two early bogeys slowed him down, but the back-half birdies turned a middling start into a spot inside the top 50.

Davis Chatfield

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Starting from outside the top 75, Davis Chatfield's move to 1-under par and tied for 50th is one of the cleaner climb-up-the-board stories this poll. At 15 holes, he's now six shots behind Emiliano Grillo, but he's at least inside the crowded middle of the leaderboard.

July 23 at 8:30 PM

Stefano Mazzoli

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Stefano Mazzoli quietly turned a 1-over par start into level with par, finishing the move from 103rd to 78th. It’s not a leaderboard splash, but after 18 holes he’s back at even footing and has something to build on.

Ben Silverman

Total: -2·R1: -2

Other

Ben Silverman’s back-to-back birdies at 11 and 12 added to earlier birdies at 5 and 6, and the latest pair moved him from 1-under par to 2-under par and into a tie for 30th. He’s five behind Emiliano Grillo, with plenty of time left to chase more.

July 23 at 8:24 PM

Peter Malnati

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Peter Malnati has steadied after an early wobble, getting back to even par through four and vaulting from 103rd to 78th. It’s not a leaderboard charge yet, but a clean start is exactly what he needed to start climbing toward the weekend cut line.

Austin Eckroat

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Austin Eckroat’s round is trending the right way: he’s back to even par through 12 after birdies at 8 and 12, and the jump from 103rd to 78th shows the scoring run is starting to matter. He’s still outside the top tier, but the rebound is real.

July 23 at 8:12 PM

Max McGreevy

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Max McGreevy has fought back from 1-over par to even par through eight, with birdies at 6 and 8 offsetting bogeys at 2 and 4. The 27-place rise from 103rd to 76th is a solid reset, but he still sits seven off the lead.

Ben Kohles

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Five birdies by the 12th have Ben Kohles at 5-under par and up to a tie for sixth. He’s two behind leader Emiliano Grillo, and the climb from 8th keeps him in striking distance of the 6-under-par pack above him.

July 23 at 8:06 PM

Adam Svensson

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Adam Svensson turned an early push into a climb from 19th to 8th, getting to 4-under par and putting himself three shots behind Emiliano Grillo. In a crowded board, that kind of start is enough to keep him in the hunt for the first wave of scores.

Patton Kizzire

Total: +2·R1: +2

Eagle

Patton Kizzire's round got a jolt at the par-4 12th, where he holed out for eagle and trimmed a card that already had a triple on 2 and bogeys at 6 and 9. He still sits at 2-over par, but the late burst moved him up 12 spots to 123rd.

July 23 at 8:00 PM

Zac Blair

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Zac Blair steadied after an early wobble, carding birdies at 4 and 10 to get back to even par. The rebound lifted him from 102nd to 72nd and put him inside the top 75, where every shot matters for the cut chase.

Davis Thompson

Total: -2·R1: -2

Other

Davis Thompson closed with enough birdies to post 2-under par and vault from 69th to 28th. It is the kind of early-round move that can change a weekend outlook, and he is now inside the top 30 with Round 1 complete.

July 23 at 7:54 PM

Tom Hoge

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Tom Hoge kept the early push going, picking up a shot to reach 3-under par through 2. That sends him up to a tie for 19th, four behind Emiliano Grillo and right on the edge of the top-20 chase.

July 23 at 7:48 PM

John Parry

Total: E·R1: E

Other

John Parry's grind paid off late: he got back to even par by the 12th and rocketed from 102nd to 72nd. It's a useful rescue on a board where a few more pars or birdies can make the weekend picture a lot more interesting.

Seamus Power

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Seamus Power kept the momentum with another birdie at 6, getting to 3-under par and jumping from 27th to 19th. He's now inside the top 20 and only four shots behind Emiliano Grillo's 7-under par pace-setting start.

July 23 at 7:42 PM

Casey Jarvis

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Casey Jarvis kept trimming the number, getting to 1-under par through 7 and leaping from a tie for 69th to 45th. It’s the kind of early-round move that can change the look of the lower half of the board fast.

Will Gordon

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Will Gordon added another shot on the back nine and turned a tie for 26th into 19th. At 3-under par through 14, he’s four shots back of Emiliano Grillo and has cracked the top 20, where the chase can start to feel real.

July 23 at 7:36 PM

Jackson Koivun

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Jackson Koivun matched the surge, carding birdies at 1, 3, 6 and 8 to reach 4-under par and join the tie for 8th. He’s three shots behind Emiliano Grillo and has gone from the middle of the pack to the edge of the early leaderboard.

Other

Ben Kohles kept building at the turn, with birdies at 2, 6, 8 and 10 lifting him from a tie for 17th into a tie for 8th at 4-under par. He’s still three shots behind Emiliano Grillo, but he’s now squarely in the round-one chase.

July 23 at 7:30 PM

Adam Svensson

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Adam Svensson found a late boost on 18, dropping another shot to get to 3-under par and jump from 24th to 17th. At the moment he’s inside the top 20, a much better spot than he had earlier in the round.

July 23 at 7:18 PM

Kurt Kitayama

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Kurt Kitayama’s start at 3-under par through seven moved him from 23rd into a tie for 17th. He’s four off Emiliano Grillo’s 7-under pace and has plenty of runway left if the putter keeps cooperating.

Sam Stevens

Total: -4·R1: -4

Other

Sam Stevens finished his round at 4-under par, good for a jump from 16th into a tie for eighth. He’s three shots behind Emiliano Grillo’s lead, but that late push keeps him in the thick of the opening-round chase.

July 23 at 7:12 PM

Tom Kim

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

July 23 at 7:06 PM

Billy Horschel

Total: -3·R1: -3

Birdie Streak

Billy Horschel is making a move early, with three straight birdies at 4, 5 and 6 lifting him to 3-under par and into a tie for 16th. That kind of burst can quickly turn a quiet opening round into a real climb.

Trace Crowe

Total: -4·R1: -4

Double Bogey+

Trace Crowe’s round unraveled late, as a double bogey at 18 turned a strong showing into 4-under par and dropped him from tied for second to tied for eighth. He’s still in the chase, but the finish cost him a much better launch.

July 23 at 6:48 PM

Sam Stevens

Total: -3·R1: -3

Other

Sam Stevens picked up another stroke by the 16th and moved from 19th to 16th at 3-under par. He’s still four back of Emiliano Grillo, but this keeps him in the top-20 mix and within reach if he can make a late birdie run.

Hank Lebioda

Total: -2·R1: -2

Other

Hank Lebioda made the biggest early leap in this group, carding two birdies through seven to reach 2-under par and a share of 20th. From outside the top 35, he's suddenly on the front page of the board and only five back of Emiliano Grillo.

July 23 at 6:36 PM

Ben Kohles

Total: -2·R1: -2

Other

Ben Kohles has birdies at 2 and 6 and is now 2-under par, a quick start that has pushed him into the top 20. On a board this crowded, getting under par early is the kind of move that can keep him around through the afternoon wave.

A.J. Ewart

Total: -2·R1: -2

Double Bogey+

A.J. Ewart is still 2-under par and clinging to a top-20 spot, but a double bogey at 13 blunted what had been a strong birdie-heavy round. With one hole left, the focus is on limiting more damage and keeping himself in the early mix.

July 23 at 6:30 PM

Billy Horschel

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Billy Horschel gave himself a tidy boost early, birdieing the fourth to reach 1-under par and jump from outside the top tier into a tie for 35th. He’s six back of Emiliano Grillo, but it’s a cleaner opening than even par.

Chandler Phillips

Total: -5·R1: -5

Other

Chandler Phillips kept a birdie-heavy round rolling and moved up to a tie for seventh at 5-under par. Even with a triple bogey on 16, he still picked up a shot on the field and now sits two back of Emiliano Grillo’s lead.

July 23 at 6:24 PM

Jackson Koivun

Total: -2·R1: -2

Other

Jackson Koivun kept his fast start going, birdieing 1 and 3 to get to 2-under par and crack the top 20 at T18. He’s still only through three holes, but the early damage has him in position to keep climbing if the putter stays hot.

July 23 at 6:18 PM

Gary Woodland

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Total: -1·R1: -1

Other

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Round 1 has flipped in the right direction. A birdie at the 12th got him to 1-under par and up from 55th to T36, a useful reset after starting outside the top 50 and a chance to keep climbing late.

July 23 at 6:12 PM

Kevin Roy

Total: -6·R1: -6

Top 5

Kevin Roy’s closing eagle at 18 was the day’s biggest jump: he went from 4-under to 6-under par and surged from outside the top 5 into a share of second. At a crowded top, that put him right on Grillo’s heels.

Emiliano Grillo

Total: -7·R1: -7

Lead Change

Emiliano Grillo finished with a birdie at 18 to get to 7-under par and take the outright lead at the 3M Open. He started the day tied at the top, but the closing birdie separated him from the 6-under group behind him.

July 23 at 6:06 PM

Luke List

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Trace Crowe

Total: -6·R1: -6

Lead Change

Trace Crowe’s birdie at 15 got him to 6-under par and into a five-way tie for the lead. After starting the hole one back, he now matches Scottie Scheffler, Lucas Glover, Michael Brennan and Emiliano Grillo at the top.

July 23 at 6:00 PM

Zecheng Dou

Total: -5·R1: -5

Top 5

Zecheng Dou cracked the top five by picking up another shot to reach 5-under par. He's now one back of the 6-under quartet at the top, putting him in the mix heading into the rest of the opening round.

Michael Brennan

Total: -6·R1: -6

Lead Change

Michael Brennan's 6-under round pulled him into a four-way tie at the top with Scottie Scheffler, Lucas Glover and Emiliano Grillo. He was 5-under before this update, so the late push keeps him squarely in the opening-round lead.

July 23 at 5:54 PM

Chandler Phillips

Total: -3·R1: -3

Double Bogey+

Chandler Phillips' day unraveled at the wrong moment: a triple bogey at 16 turned a share of the lead into a slide to 11th at 3-under par. He was still in the top 20, so the damage matters in a tight Round 1 race.

July 23 at 5:48 PM

Emiliano Grillo

Total: -6·R1: -6

Lead Change

Emiliano Grillo's late wobble turned an outright lead into a four-way tie at the top. Bogeys at 16 and 17 dropped him from 7-under to 6-under, leaving him at 6-under with Scottie Scheffler, Lucas Glover and Chandler Phillips.

July 23 at 5:42 PM

Nick Hardy

Total: E·R1: E

Other

Nick Hardy gave back a shot and slid from a share of 31st to 48th, dropping from 1-under to even par. In a tightly packed board, that leaves him seven behind Grillo and needing a quick rebound to get back into the opening-round mix.

July 23 at 5:36 PM

Trace Crowe

Total: -5·R1: -5

Top 5

Trace Crowe didn’t need a scoring burst to crack the top five — he held at 5-under par while the board tightened around him. He’s two shots off Emiliano Grillo’s 7-under pace and right in the mix after starting this poll in 6th.

Denny McCarthy

Total: -5·R1: -5

Top 5

Denny McCarthy’s move from 7th to a share of 5th comes with a one-shot gain to 5-under par. He’s now two shots behind Emiliano Grillo’s 7-under lead, a much better spot to attack the back nine from.

July 23 at 5:30 PM

Garrick Higgo

Total: +1·R1: +1

Other

Garrick Higgo’s round stalled late with a double bogey at 17, undoing a birdie at 1 and turning a 1-under-par start into 1-over par. He slid from 31st to 66th with one hole left, a sharp drop in a crowded opening leaderboard.
