Stick trailer: Owen Wilson seeks redemption through young prodigy in sports comedy seres
Apple TV+ on Thursday released the trailer for their sports comedy series titled Stick. Created by Jason Keller, who has written films like Ford v. Ferrari (2019), Escape Plan (2013) and Machine Gun Preacher (2011), the show revolves around a former pro golfer, Pryce Cahill, played by Owen Wilson.
The trailer starts with a scene in a bar, where Cahill is presumably drowning his sorrows after a long day when he is recognised by Mitts (Marc Maron). Much to Cahill's dismay, Mitts proceeds to narrate the story of his downfall to the entire bar, and how he had a breakdown on live television during a tournament. To add injury to insult, he does this while laughing at him and saying, 'Bet you can't even look at a golf club after a train wreck like that, right?'

The scene transitions to a montage of the life of Stick (Pryce Cahill's moniker), where he reflects, 'Things were supposed to be different for me. I look in the mirror, and I would not bet on the guy.' This montage also depicts his divorce proceedings, revealing his struggle to cope and his denial. He is even seen receiving a lackluster pep talk from Mitts, the same man who previously insulted him. Finally, Cahill is shown teaching golf to seniors, his attention suddenly captured by the crisp sound of a well-hit ball.
He follows the sound and discovers a kid who, in Cahill's words, 'swings the golf club like a dream,' and to no one's surprise, he tries to convince the kid to become his student. In a twist no one saw coming, the young talent had a tough childhood, and his father, who taught him golf, has passed away. Cahill convinces his mother to let him take the kid to the US amateur championship and tells her that he thinks 'he can win it all'.
The main narrative of the series seems to be pretty clear, as Pryce Cahill will try to coach the kid to glory while he will learn some truths about himself along the way.
The show, also starring Peter Dager, Lili Kay and Judy Greer, will start streaming from June 4 on Apple TV+.

'Strategy Was Wrong...Didn't Capitalise': Former F1 Champion Lambasts Ferrari For 'Clumsy Weekend' At Canadian GP
Last Updated: Rosberg criticized Ferrari's chaotic Canadian Grand Prix, calling it a "clumsy weekend" that highlighted their lacklustre season, causing them to slip to third in the standings. Nico Rosberg didn't hold back as he evaluated Ferrari's chaotic Canadian Grand Prix, describing it as a 'clumsy weekend" that encapsulated the team's lacklustre season so far. On The F1 Show, the 2016 World Champion analysed a series of blunders—from flawed strategy decisions to missed chances—that resulted in Ferrari slipping to third in the Constructors' standings, now trailing a revitalised Mercedes. 'It was a bit of a clumsy weekend from Ferrari," Rosberg stated. 'They had strong pace at times—Charles [LeClerc] was quick in qualifying and kept up with the McLarens during the race—but the tyre strategy was wrong, and they didn't capitalise on the opportunities they had." Rosberg highlighted Ferrari's choice not to attempt a one-stop strategy with LeClerc, even though there was a clear opportunity to try it. Instead, they pitted him early, which put him into traffic and compromised his race. Additionally, the team made a poorly timed pit stop for Lewis Hamilton, costing him valuable track position. LeClerc's troubles began with a crash in FP1 that caused him to miss FP2, and despite showing impressive pace in qualifying, a mistake on his final Q3 lap ended any hopes of a top-three start. Hamilton's race was further affected when his car hit a groundhog on Lap 13, causing damage that impaired his performance. Ferrari ended the race in fifth and sixth positions, while Mercedes achieved a dominant one-three finish, overtaking the Italian team in the standings. This continued a trend for Ferrari: showing speed in moments but failing to deliver consistently over an entire weekend. Regarding the decision not to risk a one-stop with Leclerc, Vasseur conceded that Ferrari missed a relatively low-risk opportunity: 'Charles was right—we didn't have much to lose. But we lacked enough data to be confident the hard tyre would last 50 laps." Vasseur commended Mercedes' turnaround in Montreal, using it as a benchmark: 'They were nowhere for three races and suddenly put two cars on the podium. It's about preparation and execution from Friday morning, and they nailed it. We didn't." With IANS Inputs
