SALT LAKE CITY – Tony Finau blew up on the South Course of Torrey Pines in the second round of the Farmers Insurance Open resulting in a missed cut.
Finau began the second round at five-under-par, just four shots behind the first-round leader, but a five-over-par second round dropped him to even par and a tie for 111th.
The round consisted of six bogeys with the first falling on the par 4 2nd. The only birdie on the day came on the ninth when his third shot from the middle of the fairway splashed within 7 feet of the cup for a reasonably simple birdie putt.
+5 today for Finau, E for the week, missed cut😔

Ultimately, it was a horrific day for Finau who had previously enjoyed many low rounds at Torrey Pines. The past two Farmers Insurance Open’s Finau has finished in a T2 and T6. While in 2018, Finau finished in a T13.

Finau will likely next tee it up at the Waste Management Phoenix Open starting on February 13.
