Kurt Kitayama earns $1.51 million, 500 FedExCup points for 3M Open win
Escrito por Rob Bolton
The 3M Open wasn’t officially a play-in game for the FedExCup Playoffs, but it wasn’t unofficially one, either.
Kurt Kitayama arrived at TPC Twin Cities at 110th in the FedExCup. As one of 130 in the field of 156 outside the top 70, he was in need of a strong performance in the last two weeks of the FedExCup Regular Season to qualify for the series.
Done and done.
Paying off an 11-under 60 in the third round, Kitayama posted 23-under 261 for a one-stroke victory over Sam Stevens. With the winner’s share of 500 FedExCup points added, Kitayama vaults to 53rd in the standings, so he can now solidify his travel plans for the first leg of the Playoffs.
Kitayama also earns $1,512,000 of the total prize money of $8.4 million.

This is Kitayama’s second PGA TOUR title in four seasons as a member. Despite a quiet 2025, he had the momentum of top-15 finishes in his most recent two starts to go with a T6 in his 3M Open debut a year ago, so his shorter odds of +4000 reflected all of it. That slotted him tied for 11th-shortest to prevail pre-tournament at FanDuel. Stevens was +7000.
In addition to the aforementioned boosts, Kitayama’s benefits include exemptions into the 2026 editions of The Sentry, THE PLAYERS Championship, the Masters and the PGA Championship. His membership exemption as a winner extends through his age-34 season of 2027.
For the first time in a while, there were co-favorites for a PGA TOUR stop. At the 3M Open, the shortest odds to win of +1800 were shared by red-hot Chris Gotterup and the consistently strong Sam Burns. They finished a respective T10 and T61.
Defending champion Jhonattan Vegas (+7500) landed in a nine-way tie for 44th.
