Affirmed. See Castillo v. E.I. Du Pont De Nemours & Co., Inc., 854 So. 2d 1264, 1277 (Fla. 2003) (“It is a basic tenet of appellate review that appellate courts do not reevaluate the evidence and substitute their judgment for that of the jury. If there is any competent evidence to support a verdict, that verdict must be sustained ․”) (citation omitted); Berges v. Infinity Ins. Co., 896 So. 2d 665, 675-76 (Fla. 2004) (“[A]n appellate court will not disturb a final judgment if there is competent, substantial evidence to support the verdict on which the judgment rests.
