Plot
In the grand tapestry of comedy, the unlikely duo of Anthony and Miller shines bright, their beginnings rooted in a peculiar connection to the world of golf. Harvey Miller, a virtuoso golfer, is plagued by crippling stage fright that prevents him from showcasing his skills before an audience. As fate would have it, he is the offspring of a golf legend, and his talent is undeniable.
However, the competitive arena is not where his destiny lies. Instead, he is thrust into the role of a coach and caddy for Joe Anthony, his girlfriend's brother. Joe, a man more acquainted with the salty spray of the Pacific Ocean as a fisherman than the manicured greens of a golf course, must convince his hard-nosed father that the seemingly trivial act of propelling a tiny ball into a hole can hold more promise than a life at sea.
As they navigate the professional golf circuit, their innate comedic flair catches the eye of an astute talent agent. He sees beyond their golfing pursuits, recognizing a goldmine of untapped comedic potential. And thus, amid the whispering grass of golf courses and the roar of the ocean, a new comedy team is born, ready to take the world by storm. Their journey is one of laughter, friendship, and a unique blend of golfing prowess and comedic genius.
