"The BEST 5 minutes of my life": Young golfer lives dream alongside Tony Finau
Tony Finau spent some time with a young boy named Alex at El Camaleon Golf Club and the aspiring golfer will not forget it any time soon.
Tony Finau is known as one of the most polite and engaging players on the PGA Tour, as well as one of the best golfers on the planet.
Finau is making his first appearance on tour at the World Wide Technology Championship since his tied 45th finish at the CJ Cup. Returning to Mexico will bring back great memories from both inside and outside of competition.
The PGA Tour has found fantastic footage of the World No. 10 spending time with a young golfer named Alex at El Camaleon Golf Club, the host of this week's event.
Alex was star-struck when he met the two-time PGA Tour winner and the young golfer gave Finau some tips on how to play the par-3 15th hole.

Both players hit impressive shots to the green of the 155-yard hole and they both exchanged reads on their putts. Alex told Finau that the best part of his game is his driving.
"I'm probably going to cry when I get home! - These five minutes have been the best five minutes of my life," said Alex.
Finau certainly made Alex's day and he was all too pleased to spend time with the young superstar. Who knows, maybe we will see Alex in the winner's enclosure on the PGA Tour in the future?
