AUGUSTA, Ga. – After flirting with a few of the notable course records during the third round of the Masters, Tony Finau now finds himself on the brink of the biggest opportunity of his career.
Finau tied a tournament record with his 6-under 30 on the first nine, and after shooting a 64 he moved from off the leaderboard into a tie for second, two shots behind Francesco Molinari. Finau played in the final pairing at last year’s U.S. Open, where he finished fifth, but this time around he’s got a certain 14-time major champion rounding out the anchor trio.
