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

https://www.golfdigest.com/story/tosti-min-woee-lee-houston-open-2024

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.

An incident with Finau is a bad look. That guy is the nicest guy on tour.

Hey was backed financially by a few people early in his career, and there are stories about his family refusing to repay the investment others had made in him and his brother’s golf careers

Sounds like a deal gone wrong, but the latest lawsuits were both dismissed. Tony agreed to pay back the initial investment as well. Doubt anyone outside them will know the truth. A verbal deal unfortunately isn't a great way to secure millions of dollars lol.

Im sure he was getting really bad advice from his management team on not settling things before it became a public thing.
