Tony Finau shoots 62, tied for 54-hole RBC Canadian Open lead with Rory McIlroy

TORONTO — Tony Finau birdied the final hole Saturday for an 8-under 62 and a share of the RBC Canadian Open lead with defending champion Rory McIlroy.

“I didn’t finish the way I wanted to yesterday and I think all it did was kind of light a fire in my belly to get after it today,” Finau said. “That’s pretty much what I did. I made some birdies and I just played really clean golf. ”

McIlroy had a 65 to match Finau at 11-under 199 at St. George’s Golf and Country Club.

“I’m just happy to give myself a chance, be in the final group,” McIlroy said.
