Tony Finau notched a runner-up finish at the Safeway Open thanks in part to a friendly kick off the ball of one of his playing partners.
Finau was trying to chase down Brendan Steele when he pulled his approach to the 12th hole at Silverado Resort and Spa, plugging into a greenside trap. The subsequent blast appeared to be racing past the hole but it collided with the ball of Jason Kokrak, who had just chipped to within a few feet of the hole from off the green.
Instead of facing a lengthy par putt, Finau's ball instead stopped just 2 feet away and he easily converted the save.
