How Owen Wilson’s Charm Helps in Succeeding in Golf

When it comes to sports in Hollywood, comedy is often the genre of choice. And when it comes to golf, well, let’s just say it’s a goldmine for laughs. Whether it’s the sight of players zooming around the course in motorized carts with coolers attached or the universal struggle of seasoned and casual players alike, golf is ripe for comedic storytelling. Remember classics like Caddyshack with Chevy Chase and Bill Murray, or more recent hits like Tin Cup and Happy Gilmore?

But in recent years, golf stories have been noticeably absent from our screens. As the divide between the Saudi-backed LIV tour and the US PGA shines a spotlight on the sport’s elite and their extreme wealth, it seems like the perfect time for a comedy series to swoop in and restore some green-washed integrity to the game.

Picture this: a former pro golfer, slightly charming but slightly broken, on a journey of redemption. Imagine a Ted Lasso-esque story, but swap out the soccer field for the fairway. That’s the premise for “Stick,” featuring Owen Wilson as Pryce “Stick” Cahill, a former golf pro searching for a second shot at success. It’s a comedy with heart, where warmth meets wit without veering into overly sentimental territory.

So if you’re looking for a fresh take on golf, with a side of laughs and a sprinkle of redemption, keep an eye out for “Stick” on your favorite streaming platform. Who knows, it might just be the hole-in-one you’ve been waiting for.
