SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Tony Finau doesn’t miss a lot of cuts. In fact, he’s only made 11 early exits dating back to the start of 2017.
But three of those missed cuts have come the last three years at the Waste Management Phoenix Open, where Finau has been flummoxed by a course that he enjoys in an environment he embraces. The streak had reached the point that he and caddie Greg Bodine openly joked on the first tee Thursday not about trying to win the tournament – but simply making it to the weekend.
“There’s no hiding from it,” Finau said.
