In Tony's loft, Tony had sold the nightclubs to two individual buyers, forcing him to find a way to straighten things up. Luis tells Tony that he would take care of things and the two resolve. Then, Tony tells you to head to a [[Golden Pier Swingers Golf Club|golfing club]] where they meet [[Rocco Pelosi]], one of the men which Tony owes money to. After some racial insults are exchanged between Luis and Rocco, Pelosi give Luis a job, to help him coerce some information out of a [[Union Official]] working for the [[Messina Family]].
First of all, go into 'Fine Aim' mode and position the target exactly over the victim, not the vehicle itself. Now, start your swing, and when it starts to come down, stop the bar on the narrow target line. This should put the ball on target.
 
Repeat this twice more, with Rocco moving further away each time, before Messina Family enforcers crash the party in [[Cavalcade|Cavalcades]] and try to rescue their man. Run with Tony down to ground level, or stay up top for the time being and take out the shooters. With them dealt with, get in the Caddy and follow Rocco in a chase through the park, eventually evading the enforcers. Don't worry too much about killing your pursuers, just concentrate on keeping the vehicle steady.


Out of danger, Luis, Tony and Rocco meet up, Rocco leaving to kill and dispose of the union leader, much to his dismay.
