The 3M Open, the new PGA Tour event coming to Blaine this July, has started holiday ticket offers on its just unveiled web site, 3mopen.com.

Grounds tickets good for any competitive round Thursday through Sunday are on sale for $45 each through Jan. 4. After that, fans buying single-round tickets must decide which specific day they'll attend.

Weekly tickets for the four competition days and practice rounds Tuesday and Wednesday cost $240 and for a limited time include a free preferred parking pass.

The 3M Open will be played July 4-7 at the TPC of the Twin Cities, site for nearly the past two decades of the PGA Tour Champions' 3M Championship that in recent years offered free admission.
