“Mind over matter,” Finau said. “I felt like I did a pretty good job of masking the pressure because I had to worry about my foot. … I was able to stay in the moment.” onestly, I’m not really surprised,” Finau said. “I like the golf course and my foot started to feel better the more I played. And you know, my story’s quite crazy and I’m sure most of you guys knows it by now.
“I feel like my back’s been up against the wall my whole life, so something like this is just another part of the story, I guess. But to sit up here and say I’m surprised? Not really.”
On Monday, Finau showed off his ankle injury and it’s pretty damn nasty.
