Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., (Feb. 21, 2025) – TGL presented by SoFi today announced that Tony Finau has signed a one-match contract to compete for Los Angeles Golf Club on Monday, Feb. 24 against New York Golf Club at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN2, ESPN+. LAGC’s Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood both have pre-existing commitments and are unavailable for Monday’s match.
“I’ve watched many of the TGL matches these past six weeks and I’m looking forward to getting a chance to be a part of it and compete. Team golf is always fun and exciting,” Finau said. “Collin, Sahith, Justin and Tommy are great guys that I respect and enjoy being around. I appreciate Los Angeles Golf Club calling me up for this match. I’m excited to get to SoFi Center. The place looks electric, and I can't wait to see it all first-hand and practice with the team. Monday is going to be a fun night.”
“We were aware that Justin and Tommy would take this week abroad to spend time with family, which created a unique opportunity for us to have Tony join LAGC for this match,” said Neal Hubman, Co-Founder and President of LAGC. “Tony is one of the most well-liked players in the game and has dedicated significant time and energy to make golf more accessible and available to youth, which aligns with LAGC’s efforts. We look forward to welcoming him to the LAGC family and helping us secure a playoff berth.”
Finau is a six-time PGA TOUR champion and was a member of three Presidents Cup teams in 2019, 2022 and 2024 with a 5-4-0 record and two Ryder Cup teams in 2018 and 2021 with a 3-3-0 record. Finau has three top-15 finishes this season including a T-5 at last week’s Genesis Invitational.
