Is Tony Finau Ready to Ride Momentum into TPC Scottsdale?
After a discouraging 2025 season, the new year started in a similar fashion for Tony Finau. The 36-year-old missed both of his first two cuts of the campaign and looked set for a third after a terrible start on Thursday at Torrey. However, he battled back nicely to finish T11. After a run of poor ball striking to end last year, things look much improved on that front. Even with the MCs out the gate, he is averaging +0.261 strokes gained off the tee and +0.250 on approach. It isn't record-breaking by any means, but it's certainly a step in the right direction. His history at TPC Scottsdale isn't very impressive, other than a runner-up finish in 2020. The putter has let him down, which isn't anything new for the Utah native. So, while there are positives to draw on from last week, the jury is still out on whether he's back to being a reliable fantasy option. The best advice feels like letting the suckers take the bait of hoping the play travels from San Diego.
