From Viktor Hovland to Ludvig Aberg, there are plenty of PGA Tour pros who love hitting up Chipotle on the road. Heck, Bubba Watson basically credits their food for winning him two green jackets. But as much as that “Mexican Grill” slaps, it’s tough to beat a true Mexican grill.
That’s what at least one player has discovered this week at the Mexico Open. Alejandro Tosti finds himself among the leaders after Day 1. And his strong play is apparently being fueled by tacos. Street tacos. A lot of street tacos.

Here was his food-related exchange with a reporter after his Thursday 65 that left him one shot behind co-leaders Harry Hall, Kris Ventura and Jeremy Paul.
Q. Is there anything special that you have had the chance to do this week to unwind, relax?
ALEJANDRO TOSTI: A lot of tacos, yeah. Street tacos has been my favorite, being able to talk to the people that do it every day and it’s pretty amazing the amount of tacos that people eat here.
When in Rome, right? Or, in this case, Mexico.
We’re not sure why the reporter didn’t ask if Alejandro prefers crunchy or soft-shelled tacos (a logical follow-up question). Regardless, they sound delicious, Alejandro.
