Letter: Why not highlight the accomplishments of one of Utah’s top athletes?

Tony Finau is one of the best athletes to come out of Utah, currently ranked 12th in the world. So far this year he had a hole in one at the Sony Open in Hawaii, tied for second at Torrey Pines at the Farmers Open in San Diego and tied for fourth at the Dubai Championship. He is one of eight children, raised in Rose Park and graduated from West High School. He has no college golf background like most of the ranked players. So far, you haven’t put ink to any of these accomplishments, only negative reporting about his losses. I’m wondering why?
