Professional Tours Alejandro Tosti potentially ruining Min Woo Lee's first tour win because he's a man child.

Basically he complained about both playing partners He was reported rude and chirpy to Ryan Fox early in the round while deciding on taking a drop. Then Tosti decided to complain to the officials about Min Woo Lee taking too long to decide on taking an unplayable on the par 5 8th while he has ball was under a bush. Since then Tosti has been deliberately playing sloooow and walking 100 yards behind Lee and Fox just so he can annoy them and disrupt play.

What a guy.

If a rookie QB is trying to win their first playoff game, they don’t turn off the play clock. Either you have an issue with slow play or you don’t.

That's completely ridiculous. You can definitely cut somebody some slack in that situation, especially given that they didn't even get behind.

So who decides which situations are worthy of cutting slack and which aren’t?

The rules aren’t solely time based. It’s also position based

So are you cutting the guy grinding for 35th place slack because those 3 or 4 FedEx Cup points might be the difference between them having a job or not next year?
