SALT LAKE CITY – Tony Finau has fired a two-over-par second round to make the cut at even-par in the Saudi International.
Finau, 32, began the tournament with a two-under-par in the first round but unfortunately, let all of his good work slip throughout the second round. His even-par performance through the opening two rounds is good enough to make the cut. He currently finds himself in a tie for 35 and 10 shots off the pace.
Spaniard Adri Arnaus and Harold Varner III lead the field at 10-under-par while Australian Cameron Smith and Mathew Wolff sit two shots back at 8-under-par.
