3 finish line与finishing line之辨误

On Oct. 11, hundreds of runners competed in a cross-country race in Minnesota. Melanie Bailey should have finished the course earlier than she did. Her delay came because she was carrying a competitor across the finish line.

以上摘自2023年高考英语新全国卷1的完形填空题。

我曾见到过用 finishing line 的,这里为什么用finish line?是不是错了啊?
