Tony is a non-playable human character in NES Open Tournament Golf. He is a semi-professional ranked golfer and is the second hardest character to beat after Billy. He wears an orange striped shirt with orange pants and black shoes, and he has orange hair. The player can play against Tony in match play.

Tony's official artwork depicts him wearing an orange, collared shirt and matching pants. On top of his shirt is a red and white striped sweater vest. His hair is given a more orange shade in his artwork than how it appears in the game, and his eyes are shown to be blue.

Tony appears in the Super Mario World! Mario Open Golf manga of the Kodansha series. He loves to flaunt his wealth to Peach and Daisy, but is otherwise respectful. His special skill is using his bangs to understand the direction and speed of the wind, then precisely calculating the next shot, but after falling in the lake, he forfeits due to his hair becoming wet. After the tournament, he tries to propose to the girls, but when they are revealed to be princesses, he tearfully recognizes that they are too good for him. Differently from his artwork, he is depicted with brown hair and clothing (which includes a cap with his name), similarly to the caddie in the game's instruction manual.

Tony reappears in one of the 4-koma of Super Mario Bros. 4: Super Mario World 6, where he flaunts how many letters he receives from his admirers.

He also reappears with Billy as kindergarten students in Super Mario Bros. 4: Super Mario World 7, complaining to Yoshi on how he is scaring their teacher, beating him with golf clubs. They reappear as kindergarteners in Super Mario Kart 2, where they take part in the sports day event of their school and complain to Yoshi again after he eats their cookies.

In Super Mario USA, Tryclyde disguises as Tony to lure Peach and Kinoppe elsewhere to kidnap them.
