An unreachable shot to the green. A hopeless romance. Driving-range pro Roy McAvoy can’t resist an impossible challenge. Each is what he calls a defining moment. You define it. Or it defines you.

With lady-killer charm and a game that can make par with garden tools, Kevin Costner rejoins Bull Durham filmmaker Ron Shelton for another funny tale of the games people play. For Costner’s Roy, golf is a head — and heart — game. On both counts, that’s where shrink Molly Griswold (Rene Russo) comes in. She’s big-city, Roy’s small-time, and he believes only the grandest of gestures can lure her away from a slick touring pro (Don Johnson) and earn her love. So Roy and his dutiful caddy (Cheech Marin) set out to do the impossible: win the US Open. With laughs, clever battle-of-the-sexes banter and a handy way with a 7-iron, Tin Cup winningly defines the moment and contemporary romantic comedy.

Writer/Director Ron Shelton (Bull Durham, White Men Can’t Jump) continues his winning streak of remarkable sports romances with this mid-90s fable of Roy MacAvoy (Kevin Costner), the greatest golf pro to never hit the big time. Zen master of the swing and the putt, Roy is content with his lot in life as a golf instructor at a driving range in the tiny West Texas town of Salome when Dr. Molly Griswold (Rene Russo) signs up for lessons and turns his life upside down. The quixotic Roy decides the only way to prove his worthiness to Molly – and steal her from her PGA star fiancé David Simms (Don Johnson) – is to win the US Open. Good thing he has best friend and brilliant caddie Romeo Posar (Cheech Marin) along to play Sancho Panza. Long requested, this fan favorite sports comedy arrives with all its wisdom and charm looking like a million-dollar trophy on 1080p HD. Theatrical Trailer (HD). 16×9 Widescreen
