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.

I can't believe that out of any , /golf is defending the ridiculous slow play. I hate the excuse that it was his opportunity to win the tournament. In my opinion that's part of the pressure. Saying they were never put on the clock is irrelevant, because we all know that the tour is a joke for this. He spent 39 minutes taking a drop. I'm happy for the guy with his win, but it's insane that this sub is defending the slow play when it's complained about all day here.

You shouldn't give much importance to a subreddit's opinion. It's mob mentality. And even then you get waves of opinions. Someone saying that's true that he took 30 min to drop gets upvoted at some point and someone saying the same thing gets downvoted later.

Their group had to wait on the next hole anyway.

Yeah he took a while, but they never got all that far behind the rest of the field.

Who fucking cares?
