Tony Finau holed a difficult pitch shot for a birdie on No. 18 to complete a third round of 3-under-par 68 in the British Open on Saturday at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland.

The Lehi resident moved into a tie for eighth place, entering Sunday's final round. He's in position for his sixth top-10 finish in a major tournament in only 15 starts over five seasons.
