Tony Finau 2021: Net worth, salary, and endorsements Milton Pouha Finau, who is also known as Tony Finau, is an American professional golfer. He was born on September 14, 1989, in Salt Lake City, Utah. He is 32 years old.  Early Life His parents, Kelepi and Ravena Finau have been a huge part of his life – supporting Tony’s decision to play golf along the way. An anecdote explains, how Tony decided to choose golf as the path he would pursue in the future. Tony, who is of mixed Tongan and Samoan descent, was mesmerized when he saw Tiger Woods dominating the game in 1997. That was perhaps a major driving force behind Tony’s decision to choose this sport. One can almost look at this as a cultural stereotype, but Tongans have usually been associated with the sport of football. However, help was on the way. Tony’s younger sibling, Gipper had already been following the game and was growing better at it, while Kelepi ensured that he would ensure the best for his sons. Moreover, Ravena felt that the sport would not only keep a firm hold on her attention but ensure that her sons were out of trouble, in a dangerous neighborhood. Golf – The Masters – Augusta National Golf Club – Augusta, Georgia, U.S. – April 11, 2021 Tony Finau of the U.S. hits his tee shot on the 3rd hole during the final round REUTERS/Mike Segar The younger sibling, Gipper, was the youngest player to make the cut in the Korn Ferry Tour, more specifically during the Utah EnergySolutions Championship. This was back in 2006 and Gipper’s age had been 16 years at that time. Tony attended West High School, and an interesting fact emerges about him here. Initially, he did not choose to play golf but opted to go for the sport of basketball, where he played for the school team as a center. He was an important part of this team that made it to the state tournaments, both during the junior and senior seasons. Despite receiving several scholarship opportunities, Finau decided to choose the sport that would become his profession: golf. He turned professional after leaving high school at the age of 17. Finau is the first person of mixed Samoan and Tongan descent to play the sport. Amateur Career Besides his other accolades, during his time at school, Finau was a member of the state championship team back in 2006.
