On Sunday, February 16, Maverick McNealy missed to win the Genesis Invitational 2025, finishing a blow behind Ludvig Aberg. It was his third top 10 of the season.
McNealy entered the final round of the Genesis Invitational 2025 Five head. However, he had a start of blisters, pulling five consecutive birds on the holes 2 to 6 and closing the nine before with a 30.
He picked up three other birdies in the following four holes before making a Bogey on the 14th. However, he could not add another birdie to the remaining holes, finally finishing at 11 sous to guarantee a finalist.
The 29-year-old golfer is the son of Scott McNealy, co-founder of Sun Microsystems. McNealy created the technology giant in 1982 and was its CEO from 1984 to 2006. The McNealy company was acquired by Oracle in 2010 for $ 7.4 billion. Depending on the net value of celebrities, it has a net value of more than a billion dollars.
“Really proud of my efforts” – Maverick McNealy is thinking about his performance at Genesis Invitational
During the post-round interview with the Genesis Invitational 2025, Maverick McNealy said that the ball came out of the club as he wanted, and he found it quite fun.
“This is one of those things you get on a role, you know that it will end at some point but you just want to extend is as much as possible. Yes, 9 under 13 on this golf course, I am quite proud of that.
“You know, a few golf swings that I would like to be back. You know, hit a post out of 17. I was actually trying to hit him in the tangled area on the right where we did Friday and we finish in A unlucky place, but it’s the golf course.
McNealy won $ 2,200,000 as a finalist in the enormous $ 20 million scholarship. This is his highest pay check on the PGA Tour so far.
Last fall, Maverick McNealy won his first PGA Tour victory at the RSM Classic, ahead of Daniel Berger, Nico Echavarria and Amateur Luke Clanton by a margin at a time. He took his form from last season and displayed three TOP-10 in six starts. He equaled the eighth at the Sentry 2025 and finished T9 at the WM Phoenix Open last week.
