Kevin Costner and Rene Russo star in this hopelessly romantic story of a out-of-date golf pro. Roy (Costner) is a failed pro golfer who has nothing left but a run-down driving range, which he and his caddy Romeo manage. When he sells the range to show girls he meets Dr. Molly Griswold (Russo), a female psychologist. Turns out Griswold is the girlfriend of PGA superstar David Simms (Don Johnson).
Roy falls in love with Griswold. In order to catch her attention, not only does he become her patient, but he also tries to qualify for the US Open. He doesn’t care about the glory, the money, or the fame. He doesn’t care if he is the champion. What he does care about is winning Griswold’s heart.
“Roy ‘Tin Cup’ McAvoy (Kevin Costner): Sex and golf are the two things you can enjoy even if you’re not good at them.”
