Tony Finau captured his sixth PGA Tour title at the Mexico Open in Vidanta last night. Utah’s 33-year-old beat number-one-ranked golfer Jon Rahm by three shots. On the last day, Finau‘s most impressive achievement was in the first half of the game. He finished with a bogey-free round of 5-under 66 that gave him a three-shot victory. It was his redemption because last year he came in second to Rahm by one shot.

“It feels amazing. I knew I would have my hands full,” said Finau, who finished at 24-under 260.“Rahmbo’ is on top of the world right now. It’s crazy how this game is – you never feel you have a tournament won until it’s over.”
