Farmington • PGA Tour player Tony Finau of Lehi endorsed the newly named Korn Ferry Tour by citing how he played at this level only four years before making the U.S. Ryder Cup team.
Odds are that multiple members of future teams are competing this week at Oakridge Country Club in the Utah Championship. The process also goes in the other direction. Boo Weekley, a star of the Americans’ 2008 Ryder Cup victory, is using the tour as one of his avenues in coming back from an 18-month absence due to tendinitis in his elbow and cancer in his shoulder.
