 Michael Thompson won the 3M Open in Blaine, Minnesota on Sunday (July 26) by two strokes to claim his second career PGA Tour victory and his first in seven years.

The 35-year-old was solid throughout the tournament and didn't buckle under pressure, sinking a 12-foot putt on the par-five 18th to seal the win under sunny skies at TPC Twin Cities.

"It has been a long time," an emotional Thompson said after his round of four-under 67

"I'm really sad my wife and kids aren't here to celebrate this with me. I can't wait to see them. Babe, I love you," he said.

Thompson, who was tied for the lead coming into Sunday's final round, produced his best shot on the par-four 16th, where his long shot from the greenside bunker landed a couple feet from the hole.
