One day after he set a tournament record by shooting a 60, Canadian Adam Svensson shot a 4-over-par 75 and made the 36-hole cut. Thursday’s first round included eight birdies and an eagle, and he credited a sizzling putter that had never been better in his life.

Svensson came into the week 170th in the FedEx Cup standings, effectively needing a win to get inside the top 100 and give himself a look at a playoff spot. With a win, Svensson would move to 69th in the standings, putting him just inside the number needed to make it to the first playoff event with just one tournament to go.

It capped off a thrilling opening-round course-record 11-under 60 at TPC Twin Cities to grab the lead at the 3M Open by two strokes over Sam Stevens.
