Tony Finau looks to make the Ryder Cup team once again in 2023- "It's a goal of mine"

Going into the 3M Open, Tony Finau's goal is clear, he wants to make the Ryder Cup team once again. He is also the 3M Open defending Champion, and is looking to retain that title.

Speaking via Golf Channel, Finau said:

“The Ryder Cup always has been on my mind from the start of the year. It's a goal of mine. I would say any American golfer playing, it's a goal of theirs to be on this team; that hasn't changed. But I've been in this type of position before, you know, where probably on the outside looking in. Going to have to play some good golf over these next few weeks and make my case.”

Scottie Scheffler has already earned his place on the 2023 Ryder Cup team. Wyndham Clark, Brian Harman and Brooks Koepka, the three major winners of the 2023 season are also up for automatic qualification. Strong names like Max Homa, Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler will be considered as captain's picks.
