If Tony Finau is writing thank-you cards after Sunday's wild win at the 3M Open, at the top of his mailing list will be Scott Piercy and the 17th-hole grandstand.
Finau went from five shots down to Piercy, the 54-hole leader, to leading by two after Piercy's triple bogey at the par-4 14th hole. Finau, playing in the group ahead of Piercy, later led by four shots after birdies at Nos. 14-16 when he stepped on the tee at TPC Twin Cities' par-3 17th hole.
That's where the second thank you is needed.
