Let the tight ℓ-cycle minus one edge C_ℓ3- be the 3-graph on \1,…,ℓ\ consisting of ℓ-1 consecutive triples in the cyclic order. We show that, for every ℓ≥ 5 not divisible by 3, the Turán density of Cℓ3- is 1/4 and also prove some finer structure results. This proves a conjecture of Mubayi--Sudakov--Pikhurko from 2011 and extends the results of Balogh--Luo [Combinatorica 44 (2024) 949--976] who established analogous claims for all sufficiently large ℓ. Results similar to ours were independently obtained by Lidický--Mattes--Pfender [arXiv:2409.14257].
