I think I'm a bit lost.

Am I, sorry, am I on a golf course?

Official YIFY movies site:
YTS.MX

- Yeah, hi.

- Hi, sorry, am I interrupting?

- I'm about to play my shot.

- Oh God, I'm so sorry.

Go ahead, sorry, I'll
just, I'll just, sorry.

- Well, are you gonna talk again?

- Ever?

Yeah, probably.

- When I'm hitting my shot, I mean.

- Is that what I just did?

- Yeah.
- Oh, that's bad, isn't it?

I'm guessing that's bad.

- Yeah.
- Sorry.

I've heard this is your
happy and calm place.

A golf course, I mean.

Well, it was for my boss,
my former boss, anyway.

I've never been on a golf
course before, and I'm lost.

God, I bet I don't happen every day.

- Well, I haven't played in 1823 days.

- Wow, wow, that's precise.

It's been a long time, it's almost,

five years.
- Five years.

To the day.

- Almost, it's two days off.

- Yeah.

- So if you happened every
day, I wouldn't know.

- Well did I used to, five years ago?

- No.

- Well, things change, I
suppose, or they don't.

Why so long?

Okay, camera
rolling, clap for sync.

Welcome, Frank.

Thank you so much for coming,

we're thrilled to have you.

If you just have a seat right there,

and just watch that cable and
the light above your head.

So how do you feel about
this qualification?

You know, are you nervous, or?

- Yes, I'm nervous.

I think I was born nervous.

I must've been, because I have
nothing to be nervous about;

he's playing well, and
I'm focused, I'm lucky,

very lucky, we're lucky.

The winner
of the gold medal,

and the champion golfer for the year,

ladies and gentlemen.

A piece of history.

It's the open championship.

Open Championship.

Championship.

Part of history.

And there he is.

The champion there.

- Very good.
- The great player.

A special feeling.

A very special weekend.

Seeing a good championship

won by a good champion.

A blaze of glory.

- We feed off each other.

If I'm down, he picks me up,

and if he's down, I'm there.

Like this, this whole situation,

is kind of what I'm talking about.

If you're inside the ropes,

you're inside the ropes, part of the show.

And that's all I've ever
wanted to be; part of the show.

Well, the golfing
gods are with him today.

He's won the open championship
by the biggest margin.

Struck the ball cleanly.

What a
beautiful shot that is.

It's a beautiful putt.

Could be
the greatest of all time.

An example for anyone.

Cleaning the old claret jug

in just a few minutes time.

Claret jug.

Claret jug.

Quite symbolic.

A great piece
of golfing history here.

History at the home of golf.

Depends on the claret jug.

- Yeah, I'll be on the bag in the show.

Well, hopefully.

We need to qualify first, obviously.

That's why we're here, that minor detail.

But if, when we qualify,
I'll be on the bag,

and the bag goes wherever he goes,

can't play golf without your clubs,

and the caddy carries the clubs.

So yeah, I'll be part of the show.

It's a tremendous view.

Glorious weather.

Wonderful
piece of architecture.

Hardly watered,

this golf course has been
prepared for over a year,

ground and green keeper will be dying

to get some water on it.

Design the green like that now,

and they'd think you've
gone off your head.

They wanted a links, and they got a links.

Hot dog stand
and things, ice cream parlours.

All the
grand stands will be gone,

you'll look at it, and you
won't be able to see one thing.

That's a super shot.

- Immaculate.
- Delighted to have been here

when history is being made.

All the great champions.

Absolutely stunning,
and it's been a privilege

to be here to watch it.

- Thanks, sorry, that's better.

My heart just races sometimes,

and I needed some water.

Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- Are we, is it more, or are we done?

We actually
have a few more questions

if that's all right.

- Sure, sure, of course, fire away.

To be able to
get a view of the final scenes.

It's a moment in history.

Pretty
straightforward from here, isn't it?

But you're gonna see the flag cast.

Currently
leads by a full shot.

Final hole,
they're all making their way

up to the clubhouse.

- This is where a good
caddy comes in, Ken,

just to reassure his player

that he's got the
correct club in his hand.

It's a moment in history.

- There's 175 to the
front, where's the pin?

- 8 yards on.

- So 182 total?

- Three.
- Yeah.

- 175 plus eight, 183.

- Yeah, yeah, I got it.

Wind?

Hurting, and off the right.

- Play a 195 shot, five iron.

- No, no, give me the six.

- You'll end up short
in that front bunker.

- Frank.

- With the wind hurting,

you could get buried in the sand.

- Francis!

- Don't call me that.

- Sometimes the pressure of
the occasion can get to him,

and he can make the wrong decision

in the heat of the moment,
and then he's gone,

and it's, that's it, that's game over.

- Just give me the six, Frank.

- We need a par to qualify.

Just knock a nice, easy five
to the middle of the green,

walk away with a two putt par, job done.

- I can walk away with a two putt par

having it my six iron.

- It's the wrong club.

You got me on the bag, I'm
gonna give you my opinion.

- Just give me the six.

- Fine.

BMXs, we both got given
these BMXs one Christmas.

His was black, mine was white,

but I wanted the white one,

because it meant I got to clean it more.

'Cause of the dirt, and in
the winter, after school,

we couldn't play golf
because it was too dark

and there were no lights on the course,

on our local course, so instead we would

race through the village on our BMXs

and we were always racing,
always winning, always losing.

And one day, my heart raced too fast.

And they found that I had HCM,

my heart couldn't take the race,

which is difficult, as a younger brother.

When it came to golf,

if I got nervous playing, too nervous,

which I did, it meant I couldn't play.

So after a long time of
trying to persuade my family

that my heart could take
it and I could take it,

I took the bag, and we
vowed to be a team together.

His heart, my mind as my mum used to say,

and my shoulder.

Oh, I see.

Do you miss playing?

- I still play.

It's just not my hands, it's Steve's.

And I do the numbers, which
is lucky for him, very lucky.

We don't use one of those
laser range finder things;

we don't need to, but he'll never use one.

As long as I'm around, he won't need to.

But I do, I know what you
mean, I do miss that feeling

of a pure shot, the ball
doing as you intended.

Yeah, I miss that.

And do you mind if I ask

why you don't play for fun,

without the stress of the
competition on your heart?

The fun is the competition.

If I'm not playing to
win, I'm not playing.

Oh, that
seems sad, actually to me.

- No, it's not sad.

It'd be sad if Steve didn't play,

but as long as he's playing,
I'm playing; part of the show.

- Why so long?

- Do you mind if I play now,

I've been waiting a while for this one.

- No, no, please take your shot.

I'll just wait here until-

- Thank you.
- Sure.

Wow, wow, well, if I
hadn't run for five years,

I wouldn't be able to run
that far, that was good.

I mean, it looks good.

Did it feel good?

- Yeah that was pretty good.

- Yeah, good, no, it looked good.

Why the teddy bear?

- Oh, it's a tiger.

- Oh, for your child?

- I don't have any children.

- Oh, so why does a grown
man have a tiger teddy bear

on his bag?

- Tiger Woods.

- Oh!

Oh, I see,

for his charity or something.

- Well, it's just what he has.

- So you do the same?

- Don't run any further this way,

all this way is golf.

I'd say you probably wanna
run back through there,

but I never run around here,

so I don't know where you're
going or where you come from.

- You do run though?

- Well, Tiger runs four
miles every morning.

- So you do the same?

- Well, I do now, but I
haven't played in five years.

I told you.

- Why?

- It's personal.

- Between you and Tiger Woods?

- No.

- Well, you just said it was personal,

between you and Tiger Woods.

- No, not playing for five years,

the reason why is personal.

- Oh, so why do you?

- Do the same as Tiger Woods?

- Yeah.

- Well, everybody wants to be like Tiger.

- Okay, well, he got a divorce,

and he devastated his family

due to his multiple extramarital affairs

and his regular use of class A drugs.

- And then there's the other side

of the newspaper, the back.

- Oh, so the back excuses the front?

- Well, I just like the way he
plays the sport, that's all.

- Yeah, but shouldn't
sportsmen be held accountable?

I mean, look at you; you're
doing exact same as him.

Where does it end?

- I know where it ends.

- And what about these kids?

These are their heroes, their icons,

their role models even.

- If they're great at their sport.

- That doesn't justify anything.

- Well, don't follow their private lives.

- Well, what if it's unavoidable?

- Maybe this is why

you haven't been on a golf course before.

- Well, I have now.

- You haven't, actually,
you're just in the woods still,

excuse the pun.

If Tiger Woods wasn't married

when he'd done the things you mentioned,

what would you think of him?

- That he was a foolish young man.

- Maybe that's what he
was, a foolish young man

who had done everything right in his life,

and then he tried to
do another thing right;

get married, start a
family, but he wasn't ready.

He was ready to win,
but not to love someone.

- Winning isn't everything.

- Well, more than 40% of marriages
end in divorce in the UK.

- So what are you saying?

- That there's no shame in making mistakes

that loving someone is hard
and not a God-given right.

I'm gonna go now, I just came to play.

Goodbye.

- Okay, bye, good luck.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

Excuse me, excuse me!

Hi, I'm Naomi.

- Londoner?
- Is it that obvious?

- You smell good.

- Thank you.

- Far from home.

- Not really.
- Well, further than Ubers.

- Yeah, I drove here myself.

- Good that you drive.

- That didn't, that came out wrong.

That's not what I meant.

No, I had to get away,

- From what?

- Well, that I can't tell you,

and if I did, I'd have to kill you.

- Oh!

- Or we'd have to get married.

You can legally share
details with a spouse.

- Same thing.

- Killing and marrying?

- No, secrets and marrying.

- Yeah, or those.

- Killing too, probably.

- Are you married?

- What do you think?

- Yeah, neither am I.

I'd like to be, but I haven't
found the right person yet.

- Are you on the prowl?

- The tiger prowl?

- No, no, no, that would be bad.

- I thought you said you knew
where emulating him ends.

- I know where it ends.

- No, I'm searching,
but they say it happens

when you least expect it, don't they?

- What, like finding your keys
in the last place you look?

- What?

- Well, it's the last place you look

because you found them.

- Oh, I hadn't thought
about it like that before.

- If you're constantly walking around

wanting to fall in love,
you'd be pretty on edge.

- Yeah, I suppose.

- You suppose?

Expecting every conversation
to result in fireworks,

you'd repel people, so we adapt.

- Yeah, well, we learn to expect nothing,

well, within reason.

It takes the pressure off both people.

And then, we're just being ourselves,

which means that's when you meet someone

when you least expect it.

- Yeah, because you're
finally being yourself.

- Which is what the other
person is also looking for.

- And being.

- Themselves.
- Hopefully.

- What's finding love got
to do with finding keys?

- People misplace both all the time.

- My boss sexually harassed me.

I quit my job

and received a rather
large financial settlement

to keep me quiet, so I've just come away

because I need to regroup,
find a new direction.

It hasn't been the most
pleasant or easy experience.

- I'm sorry.

- Thank you, but these things happen.

- Well, they shouldn't.

- Nope.

- This the same boss who says

the golf course is his
happy and calm place?

- Mm-hmm.

Is it not a happy and calm place?

- Well, it depends how you play it.

- Like well or not well?

- Huh, well, it isn't a
place for me, specifically.

It's an extension of life,

which also makes it
not definitively happy,

depending on how I play
or what I bring with me.

- So life isn't a happy
and calm place for you?

- No, no, of course not, not always.

Is it for you?

- No, not always.

- And if you've come here to hide away,

then you've made a mistake,
it'll find you out.

- Yeah, well, we all have secrets

and reasons to kill if they're exposed.

- We do, and yours is safe with me.

- Thanks.

- Your old boss' secret isn't though.

- That he's a repugnant louse?

- Well, to put it kindly.

- Oh, no, no, no, no,
that wasn't a secret.

That was obvious.

He wore that like a badge of honour.

No, no, no, no, I was exposed
to something far worse.

- What was that?

- God, I'm revealing all today.

I wasn't happy, and it took
something terrible to happen

for me to realise it.

- What happened wasn't your fault.

- Yeah, but everything happens
for a reason, doesn't it?

- Well, yes.

- I'm searching for that
reason; the silver lining.

- Well, as long as you
don't beat yourself up

during that search.
- No.

- Blaming yourself is the
last thing you should do.

- No, I would never do that.

I'm just not like that.

I wouldn't blame myself for something.

- Where are you going?

- Oh, you stopped.

- My ball.
- Right.

What's that?

- This?
- Yeah.

- This is my yardage book.

- Well, what's it about?

- There's no story in it.

There are clues in here that
help me write my own story.

It highlights landmarks on the golf hole

and indicates how far
away those landmarks are

to the front of that green.

- The green?

- Well, it's like the dance floor.

- Oh, so you pick up girls there?

- Yeah, well, you drive, like I just did,

to get yourself in the best position,

and then you putt on
the green to finish off.

Drive for show, putt for dough.

- So you pick up girls there?

- I'll keep that in mind.

- So what's it saying?

- It is saying that I have
162 yards plus 15, which is?

- 177, why two numbers?

- Well, the first number is
the distance from this bunker

to the front of the green, 162.

And the second is the distance
from the front of the green

to the hole, 15, and then
you add 'em together; 177.

- So is that far?

- There's some wind as well,

and it is-

- Oh!
- Oh, sorry, sorry.

I'm really sorry.

- No, it's okay.

- The the wind is hurting, sorry.

Let me, you got some just, there you go.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- Thank you.

Okay, so what does the wind hurting mean?

- The wind hurting means
it's blowing towards us,

as I just demonstrated
very badly or very well.

I'm really sorry.

- No worries, it's fine, okay.

So, I'm guessing when I'm running

with the wind blowing towards
me, hurting, it's harder,

which means the ball doesn't travel as far

in a hurting wind.

- Correct, 177 yards is
normally my seven iron,

but with this wind it's probably playing-

- So we just walked 300 yards,

but with the hurting wind,
it felt more like 330,

which means the wind hurt by about 10%.

So if 177 yards is your seven iron,

and you increase that number
by 10%, you get about 194.

So what's the difference
in distance between clubs?

- 12 to 15 yards with my irons.

- So a lower number iron
goes further than a higher?

Correct.

- So a 177 yard shot
with a 10% wind effect

means you're playing around 194,

which means you should be
good for a six iron, yes?

- Yeah.
- Oh.

- Yeah, your job is in finance, wasn't it?

- Yeah, how did you know?

- You're good with numbers.

I'm really not.

- Well, now I'm gonna have to kill you.

- Yeah, I won't tell anybody.

- Thank you.

- My caddy had a heart attack.

I couldn't save him.

I tried, but-

- I'm so sorry.

- We'd just had an argument.

No, it was a disagreement
about which club,

it was a discussion.

We just had a discussion.

He wanted me to use a five iron,

and I wanted to use a six.

I never hit the shot.

Well, you can hit it now.

Yeah, I can.

- Wow, six iron was right.

- The story is different
every time you play.

- I still don't know your name.

- Steve.

- Nice to meet you, Steve.

- Yeah, you too.

- Are you sure you don't
mind me walking with you?

'Cause I don't want to intrude.

- No, no, it's okay.

Come on, it's unusual, I must admit,

but you're more than welcome.

- 'Cause I can just go
and retrace my steps.

- No, no, take new steps, come on.

- Okay, thank you.

So, what's a caddy?

- Are you just staying for the golf tips?

- No, I genuinely want
to know, I'm interested.

- Oh, well, a caddy is

someone who carries your golf bag for you,

they help you make important decisions,

and a good caddy is well,
your man Tiger Woods' caddy

was once the highest paid
sportsperson in New Zealand;

that's how much Tiger valued him.

- But also an indication
of how good Tiger is,

which is pretty hard for me to admit,

considering my thoughts on
his turbulent love life.

- Oh, it's about the sport.

- Oh, I'm not there yet.

- Will you ever get there?

- I dunno.

- Hopefully?

- Let's move on.

- Okay, well, a player and caddy

are only as good as each other,

and Steve Williams, the Kiwi,

he knew what he was doing.

- So you're a team?

- Yeah, yeah, it can get lonely out there,

you need someone to calm you down

and take your mind off things.

- So you get calmed up out there?

- Sometimes.

- So a caddy is also like
a conscience, perhaps?

- Yeah, a good conscience
on your shoulder.

- Right.

- Left.
- What?

- Which shoulder is
your good conscience on?

- God, I've never thought about it.

The right, right feels right
for my good conscience.

- That's what most people say.

- Really?
- Apparently.

- Then why did you choose the left?

So when I swing through the ball,

I swing to the good thoughts.

- Do you know?

I'm starting to think everything with you

is to do with golf.

- No, maybe, somehow, maybe.

It's easier that way.

- Can I carry your-

- No, no.

Sorry.
- It's fine.

- He was was my brother.

- Who?

- My caddy, he was my little brother.

Maybe five years isn't long enough.

I'm sorry.

I don't feel comfortable with
anyone else holding my...

It's my burden to carry.

- Well, I like the walking.

It's a good walk.

- Well, Mark Twain said
golf is a good walk spoiled.

- Well, I'm not playing, see?

Well, maybe that's the trick.

- Well, the key, Mr. Twain,
is to walk alongside someone

who plays well, then you
get the best of both worlds.

- We were trying to qualify
for the Open Championship

A par on the final hole, and we were in.

- That's the amount of shots

you can take on each hole, right?

- Yeah, yeah, the par then,

was like this hole now, a four,

which we never got.

And I haven't hit
another ball until today,

and you interrupted me
in the middle of it.

- I'm seriously so sorry.

- No, no, it's what I deserve.

- Why?

- I should have listened to
him, I should have agreed.

Maybe he'd still be here.

- You don't really think that.

- He died in my arms, that's what I think,

that's what I know.

A bad shot stays with you,

and haunts you every time
you play the hole again,

it's like events in your
life; places, dates things.

A good shot never leaves
you either, I guess,

so it can work that way as well.

- Well, let's hope for good shots then.

- Yeah, we've hit two so far.

- Yeah, we have.

So why now?

- Well, I wanna qualify for the Open.

It's the only thing
I've ever wanted to do.

It's the only thing we ever wanted to do.

- It's the wrong club.

You got me on the bag, I'm
gonna give you my opinion.

- Just give me the six.

- Fine.

- Frank?

Frank, Frank, Frank, what's wrong?

Frank, what's wrong?

Look at me, Frank, come on.

Stay with me, Frank.

It was great.

It was not
great, it was rubbish.

Well, we had to do
it in front of everybody, so...

- Do yours now.

- No.
- Come on.

He usually does it at the drop of a hat.

- Well, everyone had to learn one.

So you do yours.

And that's not true, I don't.

- Yeah, that's pretty true.

- Not true.

- Any public event.

- I'm gonna prove it's
not true by not doing it.

You do yours.

Oh, come on.

- You do yours, and then I'll do mine.

- I just said I'm not gonna
do it to prove I don't do it

at the drop of a hat.

- Why should I have to do it then?

- Just set by example.

Be the hero.

- Do it, the world is watching.

Yes, we are.

- The time you won your town the race,

we chaired you through the marketplace.

- Sorry, who did?

- We chaired you through the marketplace.

Man and boy stood cheering by,

and home we brought you, shoulder high.

Today, the road all runners come,

shoulder high, we bring you home,

and set you at your threshold down,

townsmen of a stiller town.

Smart lad to slip the times away

from fields where glory does not stay.

And early though the laurel grows,

it withers quicker than the rose.

Eyes the shady night has shut

cannot see the record cut,

and silence sounds no worse than cheers

after Earth has stopped the ears.

Now you will not swell the route

of lads that wore that honours out,

runners whom renown outran,

and the name died before the man.

So set before its echoes fade,

the fleet foot on the sill of shade,

and hold to the low lintel up,

the still defended challenge cup,

and round that early laureled head

will flock to gaze the strengthless dead,

and find unwithered on its curls

the garland briefer than a girl's.

- I feel like we're waiting
for something to happen.

I don't know that much about golf,

but I know won't move until you hit it.

You know it won't move
until you hit it, right?

- We're reading the putt.

- Well, I'm really nothing into this,

apart from a ball sitting
on a patch of grass.

- You know when you're driving, you drive?

- I do.

- There are those signs
with the arrows on them

that indicate when
there's about to be a bend

either to the left or to the right.

- With those, I am familiar.

- And the number of arrows indicates

how strong that bend will be.

- Yeah, they're called chevrons.

- Are they?

- Yeah, those half triangle pointy things,

they're called chevrons.

- Well, there you go.

Well, I'm about to send
this ball on its road,

but there are no signs saying
which way the road bends,

no chevrons saying how much or how little,

so I'm figuring out where the
signs would be, like here.

Here it's gonna turn to the
left, but only slightly,

so there'd be a sign here with
a couple of chevrons on it.

- How can you tell?

- Come have a look.

- Do you see the lay of the land?

How it curves down to the left?

Well the ball is gonna
roll with that curve

and change the direction
as it moves along.

It's called break.

- So like the current of the
ocean pulling it a certain way?

- Yeah, yeah, that's a lovely
way of putting it, yeah.

The green is filled with these
little pockets of current,

some big, like a wave a surfer can ride,

and some small, like where
a stone would tumble around.

There are uphill and
downhill waves that affect

how far the ball will roll,

like swimming with the
current or against it.

This green comes alive when
the ball rolls along it,

golf gives a voice to the
plants, and the trees,

and the grass, and the wind.

A good golfer can hear those
voices, but a great golfer,

a great golfer listens.

- So which are you?

- What?

- Great or good?

- What?

- Did you listen to what I?

Very funny.

I just had to
do it, it seemed too easy.

- So which are you?

- Well, that's for the ball to decide.

The ball has the final word
and the most important one.

- Go on then.

- I shall.

- You listened!

- Or I got lucky.

Luck is often the loudest voice.

- Luck is a lady.

- Well, there you go, that
putt went in because of you.

- Are you saying I'm your lucky charm?

- Well, the ball went in.

- And the ball has the final word.

- You can go and get it if you want.

It's there because of you.

- I don't mind if I do.

So that was three shots on
a par of four, what's that?

- That is one under par, a birdie.

- Oh, I like the sound of that.

- Everybody does.

Enthralling
days here on the old course,

and it all began very
early, on Thursday morning.

It's just
an incredible weekend.

All the way.

And that
builds a lot of character.

Looking a little difficult.

Something
a little bit magical.

Very nice indeed.

A shot to the system.

No slip ups from
here, he sets a new record.

- Thank you, Ken.
- All right, cheers,

see you later.

- Here we go.

- Thank you.

- Are you sure you don't want ketchup?

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

I was supposed to be in
the middle of a big run,

so munching down on a, no,
on a greasy sausage sandwich

with lots of delicious
ketchup don't do it.

No, no, please, no, no, no.

Literally, this is the last thing I need.

- I'm doing it, I'm doing it.

It's too late.

- Yeah, okay, a little.

- Yeah, you won't regret it.

You won't regret it, I promise.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

I guess any sport you
can eat in the middle of,

arguably, isn't a sport.

- I had an ex-girlfriend who said that.

- She's a woman after my own heart.

- Surely, it makes it more of a sport.

You need to refuel in the middle

because it's so absolutely exhausting.

- Yeah, but you can't eat

in the middle of a football game, can you?

- No, you couldn't, that's a good point.

How straight it flew, how long it flew,

it cleared the ruddy track,

and soaring, disappeared from view

beyond the bunker's back.

The glorious sailing, bounding drive

that made me glad I was alive,

and down the fairway far along,

it glowed a lonely white.

I played an iron sure and strong,

and clipped it out of sight.

And spite of grassy banks between,

I knew I'd find it on
the green, and so I did.

It lay content, two paces from the pin.

A steady putt, and then it
went, oh, most surely in.

The very turf rejoiced to see
that quite unprecedented 3.

Ah, seaweed smells from sandy caves

and time and mist in whiffs,

incoming tide, Atlantic waves,
slapping the sunny cliffs.

Lark song and sea sounds in the air

and splendour, splendour everywhere.

- Wow.

- Golf clap?

- Golf clap.

- Thank you.

- Wow.

What was that?

- We had to learn a poem
in school for sixth year.

- And you chose one about golf?

- Obviously.

- Were you good at school?

- I was good at the sport part,

so we always won, and everyone liked me.

- Oh, of course you were.

- Were you good at school?

- At the sport part, no,

but at the academic part, yeah.

- Oh, of course you were.

- So, why did you decide to serenade me

with your sixth year poetry again?

- Was it serenading?

- Nearly.

- Good.

No, I was just demonstrating
to you the wonders of golf,

that you couldn't recite that

in the middle of a football game.

- No, not fluidly,

but there'd be some
cursing in there somewhere,

but you could in the
middle of a cricket match.

- Yes, you could, but
you'd have to shout it,

for everyone to hear you.

- You can also eat in the
middle of a cricket match too.

- You can.

- Lunch, tea, drinks.

- Yeah, all the meals.

- It's essentially just a day of eating

with activities built around the courses.

- Yeah.

Yeah, but golf isn't just about the sport,

it's about spending time
with people, intimate time,

out here on all this.

- Are you trying to recruit me?

- No, I'm just expressing to you

what I love and why I love it,

so that you can get to know
me, but I don't have to.

- Tank you, no, I like it, thank you.

- Well, it's my privilege.

Thank you for listening.

What do you love?

- Well, I love grown men chowing
down on sausage sandwiches.

- Oh, sorry.
- And talking to me

with their mouth full.

- Sorry.
- But you are testing my love.

- I'll look away and eat, I'm so sorry.

No, I'm joking,

I actually do really enjoy
watching people eat politely

and being fulfilled.

- Well, you should open a restaurant then.

- I've always wanted to.

- Well maybe that's your
new direction, do it.

- Maybe I will.

- What would you call it?

- I don't know.

- How about Naomi's Nibbles?

- Are you joking?
- No.

- That's terrible.

I mean, it kind of sounds porny.

- Porny?

- Yeah, Naomi's Nibbles, no, ew.

- When you say it like that.

- No, I think you should
just stick to the golf, okay?

- Fine.

You got something on you.

- What?

- Right there.

- Well, what is it?

Where is it?

- It's a bit of ketchup, I think.

It's right here.

- This is why I didn't want ketchup.

Can you just get it?

- What, because you can't eat
properly, you didn't want it?

- Just get it.

Can you just get rid of it, please?

Oh!
- I got it.

No, wait, there's a bit more.

No, no!

- Is it gone?

- Yeah, it's gone now.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Thank you, I think I'll
just pick at this instead.

That's embarrassing.

- It's fine.

- I'd probably call it Mandeville.

- Mandeville, what's that?

- It's a town in Jamaica
where my parents are from.

I love running, I love the freedom of it,

and I love sweating.

I love sweating everything out.

Years of working in
air conditioned offices

have made me really appreciate
a good old fashioned sweat,

and I love my independence.

I was adopted, well,
technically, fostered,

so I love being responsible
for all of my own things,

and making my own decisions,

because I didn't really
have a say in my childhood.

My parents died in a car
crash when I was a baby.

I don't really remember,

and I was with the same foster family

until I left university, but
they died recently, last year,

so I'm on my own, and I'm
learning to live on my own,

I'm still learning to live
on my own, and it's hard.

It's getting better.

I mean, initially, I was
completely terrified.

Actually, I remember, my
first night at university,

I didn't realise that

you could literally do
anything you wanted.

You could make as much
noise as you wanted,

go to bed when you wanted.

And as much as I love my foster parents,

and I did love them like
they were my real parents,

and they really were my real parents,

but I always felt like an
impostor in their home,

like a perpetual guest.

And so I've always liked
to build my own things

and have my own things, so I'd
probably call it Mandeville,

which would be somewhere that
I would have built for myself,

and anyone was welcome.

And when you were in
Mandeville, it was your place.

- Well, it sounds lovely.

- And your dad, he taught
you how to play golf?

- He did, yeah, he taught Frank and I;

that was my brother's name.

But I've only got my mum now.

So what about these sandwiches then?

Would they make the menu at Mandeville?

- I think so.
- Good.

If you're shy, painfully stupidly shy,

this is a really good place to start.

- I see that.

- Do you want some more ketchup now?

- No.

- You sure?
- Yeah.

Thank you, though.

- Nice.

- So where do you live?

- Who am I?

- Yeah, who are you,
and where do you live?

- Well, I live nowhere at the moment.

- Oh, well, that sounds ominous.

Is this when you rush me into the woods

and try and murder me?

- Yeah, my master plan has worked.

No, I'm staying at my
mum's for a few days now,

which is about 10 minutes from here.

She gets lonely, and I
get, well, she only has me.

- Where were you before?

- London, my own place for a few months.

And then before that, with my ex.

- So what happened?

- Well, she had a child, not
mine, previous relationship.

Well, I guess I was still
a foolish young man.

- Do you think you still are?

- I don't know.

I really hope not.

When do you go back?

- I go back tomorrow, yeah.

- Tomorrow?

- Yeah.

- Back to London?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, back to the big smoke.

- I feel bad that I've robbed
you of a final day run,

a final day sweat.

- Don't, don't.

You've given me invaluable
lessons in golf,

and a sausage sandwich, so thank you.

- It's my pleasure.

If ever you want some magical
fresh country air again,

you know where it is.

- Yeah, for sure.

I'll think about it,
it's been really helpful.

- I'm glad.

Will you stay in finance?

- I dunno, maybe I wasn't very happy.

Maybe I should play another round of golf

and have a think.

- But you're not playing, remember?

- Ah, yes, and that's probably
why I've had a good time.

- Well, you know where it is.

- Yeah, yeah.

And, if and when you come
back to London, you should.

- Yeah, I will definitely, I will, yeah.

- Great, I don't have my phone on me, so.

- I've got one.

- Oh.
- Here you go.

Just put your number in as Naomi golf.

- How'd you know my last name?

- Really?

- No, no, I was joking.

Bad joke, but I was joking.

- Oh, you got me.

- It's not, but-
- I won't lose you.

Like that, under that
name, I won't lose you.

- Good, we wouldn't want you losing me.

- Thank you.

- So, I'll be seeing you.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- Bye.
- Bye.

away the thought of you

pain and it all leads to you

day I find new ways to lose

away the thought of you

pain and it all leads to you

- Steve, hi!
- Naomi?

- Oh God, are you peeing?
- Yeah.

- Oh, sorry.
- Just give me a second,

sorry.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Hold on.
- Sorry, oh God.

- Sorry, there's no toilet.
- No, it's fine.

Round here I have to,

I didn't see anybody who was around.

Oh no, it's fine, I saw nothing.

Oh.

Not that I, I'm
sure there's something to see,

but I wasn't looking, so
I didn't see anything.

- Hi, there's no, I haven't washed.

Here, hi, I like your dress.

- Oh, thank you.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Well, should we walk?

- Yeah, yeah.

Well, as long as you don't
play and ruin it for yourself.

- Oh no, no, I'm not playing.

- You go ahead.

- Thank you.

- I thought-

- Oh.
- You go.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Okay, well, I've got you something.

- Oh, wow.

- Yeah, I went to the local golf shop.

It's pre-owned, but they told me

it's one of the best ones
they do, so here you go.

- Oh wow.
- Yeah!

- Thank you.
- So you don't have to worry

about the books, or worry
about the numbers anymore.

You just point that at
the flag and zap it,

and the laser hits off it,

and it tells you how far away it is.

- Yeah.

- In yards, in your golf yards.

You don't like it?

- No, no, no, I like it,
I love it, thank you.

- You have one already, don't you?

- No, I don't have one.

- Are you sure you don't?

- I don't.

- Well, then this is great.

I mean, it's easy, it's super quick.

.

- Well, I can't accept it.

- Oh, but, why?

I bought it for you,
I want you to have it.

- No, it's not that.

- Because I actually can't return it,

'cause I've been pointing at things

when I walked up here, and
it's really, really good,

by the way, it's amazing.

I was testing its accuracy
and I was really impressed.

- No, it's they're not allowed.

- Where?

- At the Open.

- Why?

- Well, they are in the practice rounds,

but in the actual tournament,
you can't use them,

they're not allowed, and I
need to work on my numbers,

as you're aware, so if I
accept this and use it,

I'll get lazy, and then,
come the tournament,

I'll be a mess.

I'll be all over, more all over the place,

so I really need to work on my numbers.

- Well, maths is about a lot
of hard work and repetition,

so you'll get better.

- Yeah, the professional game is,

it's about the numbers, and
it's part of the challenge,

and the skill, so, but thank you.

It's really sweet, thank you.

- No, it's my pleasure.

Okay.

- I thought you'd gone.

- Yeah, I had, I went
to the golf shop, and.

- Yeah.

- Well, I thought of you, so.

- It's my brother.

- What?

- I'm sorry, I'm a mess.

- What is it?

- Everything-

- Steve?

- Is something, I'm sorry.

- What is it?

- He used to work the books
with me and do my numbers.

So, now every time I make
a mistake or get confused,

I feel-

- Yeah.

- I feel like he's with
me, and I hear his voice,

and he's the good conscience
on my left shoulder.

- Well, I get it, and I'm really sorry,

but I'll just take it back,
I'm sure they'll understand.

- No, I can think of a way
we can use it, if you like?

- Are you sure?

- Yeah, are you in a rush?

- No, no, no, I've got some time.

- Okay, great, let's go.

- Okay.
- Come on.

- Okay.

- I wouldn't be here if I didn't think

he was mentally strong enough.

It'd be a waste of my time.

Golf can be hard, it can be brutal.

I mean, sometimes it's
easy, very, very rarely.

Most of the time, it humbles you.

It's a game of millimetres.

A fraction in either direction

can be the difference
between fairway or rough,

water or land, winning or losing.

The ball launches at more
than 180 miles per hour,

and that speed is generated
entirely by the body.

There's no engine, no gas, nothing.

So when your body is generating that,

your mind needs to stay
calm and in control.

So there has to be a harmony

between body and mind
always, it's essential.

And with Steve, sometimes
the pressure of the occasion

can get to him, and he loses that harmony,

and he can make the wrong decision

in the heat of the moment,
and then he's gone,

and it's, that's it, that's game over.

That's a 180 miles per hour
in the wrong direction.

- 142?
- 144.

- Really?

- How did you get that?

- Well, the distance from here is 128,

and then from the front of
the green to the flag is 16,

so 128 plus 16 is-
- 144.

I mean, does it really matter?

Two yards off isn't that bad.

- If I'm playing in a
friendly game, it isn't,

but if I'm gonna qualify for the Open,

then yeah, details.

Tiger Woods will be there.

- Well, if he's there,
that changes everything.

- Yeah, it really does.

- So what happens in your
head when you're adding up?

- Well, I start to panic,
and then I lose my focus,

and I start rushing.

- Would you rush your swing?

- No, never.

- Then why do you rush the numbers?

- Because I'm not confident
with them, and it annoys me,

and I don't wanna be slow.

Slow play is a killer.

- Okay, so slow play is when someone takes

a really long time to take their shot?

- Yes, it's the absolute
worst, it's killing the game.

Nobody should play slow ever.

- And that really worries you?

- Well, it's like being
behind a slow driver.

- Okay, yeah, no, I see that.

- Yeah, now you get it.

Horrific. So when's qualifying?

- There are two stages, the
first is in a fortnight,

and then if I get through-

- When you get through.

Sorry, yes, when I get through,

the second stage is a week after that.

- And the Open itself?

- Three weeks again, so end of July.

- I'll caddy for you.

- What?

- I'll still be on my
journey of finding direction,

it'll be a nice little detour.

- You're serious?

- Yes, I'm serious.

I'll do the books, the
numbers, you take the shots,

we're a proper team; player and caddy.

- Well, there's no money in it.

I'm playing as an amateur,

so don't expect to become
the highest paid sportsperson

in New Zealand or anything.

- We'll have to play a
lot for that to happen.

- I'd have to win for that to happen.

- We'd have to win.
- We'd have to win

for that to happen, all the time.

- Yes, and I'm not from New Zealand, so.

- Well, that's a minor detail.

- Well, I don't need the money, actually.

I worked really hard, and even
though what happened to me

was the most demoralising
experience of my life,

the pay was great.

So, I'm ready to move on,

and to keep looking forward
to overcome everything,

like you have with Frank,

because he was a part of you, right?

He was in your heart.

- Yeah, of course.

- And a little bit of
you died when he did.

- Still does every day.

- It's not your fault.

Your brother dying isn't your fault.

You have to forgive yourself.

- And here I am, on a golf
course, happy and calm,

which means I really
must be happy and calm.

- Everyone's got their story.

A golf course is a blank book
with your name on the cover.

- So what will you do for money?

- Well, I have enough to see
me through until the Open,

and then if I finish well-
- When we-

- When we finish well,
I'll turn professional.

- God, so that'll be your job,

you'll be a proper professional golfer?

- Yeah.

- You're gonna have to start showing me

all the landmarks and everything,

'cause I'm starting to feel the pressure.

- Well, that's the easy part.

It's just like reading a map.

- Oh, good, I love reading maps.

- Yeah, it's nice to
know where you're going.

- Know where you're going.

- Yeah, for the journey that you're on,

that's your life.
- That's your life, yeah.

- So what's the hard part?

- Well, reading me.

- No, walk in the park.

- Uh oh.

- Can I try the bag?

- What?

- Well I can't be the
only caddy at the Open

not carrying their player's bag.

- I didn't think this through, did I?

- Mm-hmm, here.

I think your dad would be really happy

knowing someone who cares
for you is your new caddy.

- Yeah, he would.

He'd love that, and so would Frank.

And so would I.

It's heavy.

- You know I've got the guns.

- You got it?
- Yeah.

- Okay, it's all you now.

- Oh God, it is heavy.

- I told you.

- Yeah, but I like it.

- Okay, well, it looks good.

- Do you think so?
- Yeah.

- Does it suit me?
- Yeah.

Well, not when you do that,

but when you just hold it normally.

Yeah, when you just be yourself.

Yeah, like that,

That's good.

- Thank you.

You better hit your shot.

- Right, 144.

- Which means I think
you're good for, oh, a nine.

- Perfect.

- Good luck.
- Thank you.

That looks good.

- Oh my God, Steve, Steve!

- I think it might go in!

Did that go in?

- Yes!

- It went in?
- Oh my God!

Yes!

- Yes!

- Oh my God!

You did it!

- We did it.
- We did it!

We did it.

- Because of the love
that exists between us,

I can keep the harmony.

I can read him, because I
love him and know him so well,

and he trusts me because he loves me.

He needs that love to succeed.

I guess I do too; we both do.

It's our extra club in the bag,

it's what sets us apart.

It's the reason that I
know that we'll qualify.

What is it they say, what's that phrase?

Love is the answer.

Yeah,
that's the one, yeah.

- Well, in our case,

the question is how'd
you qualify for the Open?

Is that good?

Yes, just one more.

When you do qualify-
- Mm-hmm?

What then?

- It's 175 to the front,

and the pin is eight yards on.

- 183?
- Yeah.

- A six iron.
- No, no, it's a five.

- It's a six.

- No!
- Steve!

- No!
- It was a six iron then,

and it's a six iron now.

- I can't do it.

- You can.

You can do it, Steve.

A six iron onto the green, two putts,

and we're going to the Open.

- Our lives will change.

We were born to compete
in the Open together,

so when we do, there's no
looking back, only forward.

As soon as we qualify, from that moment,

it's just the future.

And the future is, well,
it's kind of strange

to be talking about, because we've worked

practically our entire
lives for this moment,

it all comes down to this, and

we're ready.

We used to do impressions of
him as kids, you remember?

- Yeah.

- So, he kind of stands there,

he's always so relaxed, isn't he?

- Yeah.

- And under his little umbrella,

and he looks down at the start sheet,

and along his nose and he
brings the mic up to his mouth,

and he's like, this is game number 32.

On the team from Spain, Sergio Garcia.

- It's good, isn't it?
- Yes, very.

- Here, I'll do one.

This is game number 45.

On the team from USA, Tiger Woods.

Do us.

- You do us.

- I'll be teeing off, do us.

This is game number 23.

On the team from England, Steve McClay.

- Yes, that's cool.

If we make it.

When we make it.

Sorry, yes, when we make it,

you're gonna have to do
that in front of him.

In front of,

I'm gonna do an impression
of Ivor Robson to his face?

- Yes.
- No way.

- Why?
- Because I'll be too nervous.

You'll be too nervous?

I'll be about to tee off at the Open.

We'll be about to tee off.

Yes, we'll be
about to tee off at the Open,

and you'll be too nervous
to do an impression

of Ivor Robson in front of him?

Yeah, I'll be focused.

- Teeing off at The Open.

That's the ultimate dream.
- Yeah.

Yes, it is.

- Nothing like it.

- Teeing off at The open.

to you, I would be home

away the thought of you

pain and it all leads to you

day I find new ways to lose

with every single thing I do

away the thought of you

pain and it all leads to you

day I find new ways to lose
