When Hollywood portrays sports on the screen, it’s often represented in the comedy genre. Golf is particularly synonymous with humour. Separate from the idea that between strokes players drive around manicured links in a motorised cart fitted with Eskies, the game’s sheer degree of difficulty – in the hooks and hacks of seasoned and casual players
