Owen Wilson impresses as Stick”: golf comedy with heart and humor!
From sports, drama and a pinch of humor: The new series “Stick” premiered on June 4, 2025 on Apple TV+. This golf comedy is not only starred but also produced by Owen Wilson and follows him as Pryce Cahill, a former professional golfer, chasing his dreams and the future of a promising talent. Pryce, also known as “Stick,” experienced a career downturn whose effects still resonate today.
The story follows Pryce, who gave up his golfing career 20 years ago after an emotional breakdown. He lives in a chaotic house riddled with memories of his better past. The plot gains depth through the relationships between the characters and the challenges they have to overcome.
A young talent and the journey to success
A central point of the series is Pryce's encounter with a young man named Santi, whose extraordinary talent in golf immediately impresses him. As they travel from tournament to tournament, the series highlights the different experiences of Generations X and Z. Pryce hopes that Santi will rekindle his long-lost talent and give him a second chance.
“Stick” is described as courageous television that deals with serious topics such as failed marriages and lost children, but avoids real villains. The ten episodes can be interpreted as a kind of road movie that deals with the challenges and uncertainties of life - and in a humorous way. The cast includes notable talents such as Marc Maron, Mariana Treviño, Judy Greer and Timothy Olyphant who bring the story to life.
Promotion and cameos from golf stars
The premiere was heavily promoted and the first three episodes are available now, with the remaining episodes airing weekly until July 23rd. The series cleverly uses the medium to appeal to both golf enthusiasts and comedy fans. Golf stars such as Collin Morikawa, Keegan Bradley and Max Homa do the honors with cameo appearances and add a special touch to the series.
“Stick” isn’t just a comedy about golf; it addresses the challenges and hopes that shape human relationships and communities. Directed by Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton, among other talented directors, the series promises to provide emotional and inspiring entertainment.
