Tony Finau is far from contending in The Open Championship, but he turned the challenge of merely making the 36-hole cut into a satisfying achievement Friday.
After bogeying Nos. 16 and 17 to fall below the cut line, the West High School graduate holed an 11-foot birdie putt on No. 18 in the late evening in Scotland. Finau pumped his fist when the ball found the hole, then spread his arms in an expression of relief as he walked off the green.
Finau’s last stroke in that classic setting on the Old Course in St. Andrews concluded an adventurous day on the greens. His 1-under-par 71 was highlighted by five birdies, amid a double bogey and two bogeys, giving him an even-par total for two rounds. Finau had missed the cut in last month’s U.S. Open. Having begun the 150th Open Championship with a 73, he knew he likely needed an under-par round to make the cut. He started with the long birdie putt on No. 1, only to have that putting disaster on No. 2.
