Third-place finishes in The 148th Open at Royal Portrush and recent US Open are among Finau's 11 top-10 placings in the majors.

Despite wild card picks into the 2018 Ryder Cup and 2019 Presidents Cup teams, it had been five years and 142 tournaments since his last PGA Tour win when he broke through again at the 2021 Northern Trust. It took him into the game’s top 10 for the first time and the following season brought three more successes in the 3M Open, Rocket Mortgage Classic and Cadence Bank Houston Open.

Last season, he also captured the Mexico Open, pushing then world No.1 and Masters champion Jon Rahm into second place. On his Ryder Cup debut in Paris, he won the opening fourball match alongside Brooks Koepka against Justin Rose and Jon Rahm and in the singles defeated the previously unbeaten Tommy Fleetwood 6&4.

Remembered for dislocating an ankle celebrating a hole-in-one in the 2018 Masters eve-of-tournament par three competition and immediately popping it back himself. He is of Tongan and American Samoan descent and his actual name is Milton Pouha Finau.
