After trailing by five shots with 11 holes to play, Utahn Tony Finau wins the 3M Open by three strokes for his third PGA Tour victory.
After trailing by five shots with 11 holes remaining, he notches a three-stroke victory for his third PGA Tour trophy.
Scott Piercy claimed that prize in The Ultimate Game’s top-heavy purse distribution in Las Vegas, but the script played out much differently 15 years later. The convergence of Finau’s four back-nine birdies and Piercy’s collapse with a triple bogey and other troubles more than covered a five-stroke gap Sunday as Finau won the 3M Open at the TPC Twin Cities in Minnesota.
With his second victory in 11 months and the third of his PGA Tour career, the summer resident of Lehi broke a tie with Bill Johnston, Mike Reid and Keith Clearwater for most victories among golfers living in Utah at the time. Mike Weir tops that list with eight wins, followed by George Von Elm and Dan Forsman with five each.
As his coach, Farmington native Boyd Summerhays said Sunday in a text message, “[After] all the tough losses when Tony’s played so, so good and done enough to win a handful of times but just had guys do more, it’s so, so good to see things go his way when he really needed it.” Finau birdied that hole, preceding an adventurous finish. His tee shot on the par-3 No. 17 sailed long and left, with the ball bouncing off a grandstand and across the green, nearly going into the water. After making a par, Finau clutched his heart, pretended to stagger off the green and kissed his ball.
