What is ‘Stick’ about?
“Stick” follows the story of Pryce Cahill, a former pro golfer who is redefining the term “down on his luck.” His marriage is collapsing, he just got fired from his job at a sporting goods store — oh, and the end of his golf career came thanks to an incredibly public meltdown on national television.
But when Pryce meets a 17-year-old golf phenom named Santi, his luck might be about to change. Santi is troubled and erratic, but he’s a master with a club in his hands, and Pryce bets his future on his ability to steer the kid down the right track.
