Once considered the most promising young golfer in the segregated South of the 1930s, Rannulph Junuh, Matt Damon, hasn't been the same since some World War I trench action messed with his head. A decade later, his society-gal, former lover Adele Invergordon, Charlize Theron needs a local boy to take on America's top two linksmen in a high-stakes tournament she's organized. Can Rannulph, aided by mysterious philosopher-caddy Bagger Vance, Will Smith, get his swing back in time to win it all?
