AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Tony Finau was famously known for celebrating an ace in last year's Par 3 tournament at Augusta National Golf Club -- and dislocating his ankle and then popping it back into place. After Saturday's third round, Finau will be remembered for something else.
He tied the first-nine record with a 6-under 30 to become the first player to reach 9-under in the 83rd edition of the Masters.
Finau, 27, missed a 10-foot putt on the No. 9 hole to break the record. He joined five other players who shot 30 on the front; Gary Woodland (2014), Phil Mickelson (2009), K.
