A Golfer Snapped His Ankle Back Into Place After Dislocating It While Celebrating a Hole-in-One – The Bert Show
Tony Finau is the 34th-ranked golfer in the world…and apparently, he’s tough as nails.
Tony is supposed to compete in his first Masters beginning today, but he went through a roller-coaster of emotions yesterday.
He competed in the Par-3 Contest…and things were looking up when he hit a hole-in-one. Tony was excited…too excited. He started celebrating, and he rolled his ankle. Bad.
He was down on the ground for a moment…before he grabbed his foot and snapped it back into place. And he kept on golfing.
He apparently did dislocate the ankle. But X-rays later revealed no breaks. He’ll have an MRI today, and if the results are positive, and the swelling is under control, he’ll try to play. Tony said he’s “optimistic.”
