Finau, McIlroy tied atop leaderboard heading into final round of Canadian Open
Toronto can feel like home for Tony Finau. He certainly knows the city's ins and outs.
Finau had the best round of the tournament on Saturday, rocketing up the leaderboard with seven birdies and an eagle at St. George's Golf and Country Club.
"I didn't finish the way I wanted to yesterday and I think all it did was kind of light a fire in my belly to get after it today," said Finau, who was tied for 16th at 3 under after two rounds. "That's pretty much what I did. I made some birdies and I just played really clean golf.
"Any time you're at the top of the leaderboard and have a chance to win on a Sunday on the PGA Tour it's exciting."
Finau played on the PGA Tour Canada in 2013 and said he had fond memories of driving across the country with fellow golfer J.J. Spaun.
"It's nice to be back in Canada," said Finau, who was paired with Spaun for the first two rounds of the tournament. "It does feel almost like a home game. I definitely get a lot of love from the fans, which is pretty amazing."
