Ben, the groundskeeper's son at an elite golf club, is thrust into a high-stakes tournament by his daring friend, Javi. As he battles nerves and an unruly slice, Ben must prove he belongs among the elite or risk being out of his league forever. Can he rise to the challenge, or will his fears hold him back?

Can he find a way to calm his nerves and straighten out his embarrassing slice or will he forever be too shabby for this type of competition?
