The front nine wasn’t too bad for Finau but it became apparent pretty quickly that he wouldn’t be contending for a top-5 finish.
He started with two pars and a bogey on the first three holes.
Birdies on holes four and eight had Finau at one under par halfway through his fourth round.
IN THE HUNT.

Things started to go downhill for Finau on the back nine.
He posted a double-bogey on the par-3 11th hole to move to +1 through 11.
Another bogey on hole 14 put him at +2.
Just like in rounds two and three, Finau finished strong with birdies on three of the last four holes.
A name etched in history forever.
