Tony Finau Falls Short In Playoff At HSBC
6 years agoTony Finau's wait for a second PGA Tour victory will be a little longer. After being in the lead for much of the WGC-HSBC Champions event, Finau fell to Xander Schaufelle on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff. Finau shot a final-round 71 to finish at 14-under par for the tournament. Schaufelle shot up the leaderboard with a final-round 68, the low score of the day at Sheshan International, to force a playoff. Finau's drive on the playoff hole found a bunker, effectively ending his chances to win. It was another excellent performance by Finau, but the young superstar is still searching for a breakthrough win on the PGA Tour after numerous close calls last season. He will get another shot at victory in the upcoming Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.
