Finau shares picture of mangled ankle post-Masters

Tony Finau has shared pictures of his injured ankle following the Masters, making his run of six birdies in seven holes on the back nine at Augusta even more ridiculous.

The American dislocated his ankle celebrating a hole-in-one in the Par Three contest on Wednesday, a day before teeing it up in the opening round where he shot a 68 to leave him in second place.

Following his “miracle” round, Finau carded rounds of 74 and 73 to play himself out of contention.

But then came a final day of what was a bizarre week for Finau. He went out in 35, one under, for his opening nine on Sunday, before bogeying the 11th hole.

The big-hitting 28-year-old then birdied EVERY hole from the 12th to the 17th and narrowly missed picking up another shot on the 18th, coming home in 31 blows.

He finished on -7, T10 for the 2018 Masters.

 

What a week ! I birdied 6 of my last 7 holes to get in the Top 10 in my @themasters debut. It was an eventful week to say the least! Hole in one Failed Celebration Adversity First round 68 Final round 66 Top 10 2019 Masters invite Never Quit In the face of adversity I believe we find out most about who we are. What a memorable week for me and my team! Proud of my team being up to the challenge to help me compete at a high level this week. Thanks to all who reached out with well wishes until next year Augusta National!
