Tony Finau seems to be unstoppable with his current form. He’s won back-to-back PGA Tournaments after claiming the win at the 2022 Rocket Mortgage Classic. After his win, Finau shared a few words which touched a lot of hearts including his fellow PGA Tour star Justin Thomas who conveyed his thoughts about Finau on Twitter.
Tony Finau dominated the field on Sunday to win for the second week in a row, one week after winning the 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities. He finished the Rocket Mortgage Classic final round with a 5-under par.
Finau won by five strokes over Patrick Cantlay, Cameron Smith, and Taylor Pendrith as he concluded the competition at 26-under par. He, therefore, became one of a select group of players who have won two weeks in a row by at least three strokes.
