Somehow or another I've never seen Tin Cup. I like the actors in the movie and haven't gone out of my way to avoid it. Just haven't fit it in somewhere along the way.

    Wow, it's on a lot it seems. Sometimes the Golf Channel runs it in a marathon. I've seen it multiple times. Know most of the famous lines like, "toed it a bit, but it'll due" etc.. lol

    Usually now I'll flip around like last night and if it's on somewhere will end up watching it. It happened to be on Fox Sports last night. Try to catch it I think you'll like it. Good feel good golf movie.

      Sneakylong Yeah I see it on the TV listing often. I just never seem to catch it before it starts. I won't tune into a movie that I haven't seen if I can't see it from the beginning. Clearly I haven't gone out of my way to see it, but I'm that way about most movies. Usually if I plan ahead to see a movie it is because someone else wanted me to see it with them. I'll catch up to it sometime.

      It has been quite a while since I've seen that movie. Would be nice to catch it again, that one and Bagger Vance.
      @Sneakylong got a DVR? You should be able to check for upcoming showings and record one so you can watch it on your time.

        ""Tin Cup"" a golf movie we can all relate too....one of Costner's best!

        Walterjn Sneakylong has seen it, it's me that hasn't. Yes, I do have a DVR, but it has a lot of stuff on it that I haven't gotten around to in quite some time. I don't want to add to the pile. I'll get to Tin Cup in due time.

        @johnnydoom needs the DVR. lol I've seen Tin Cup more times than I can count. haha Bagger Vance is another good golf movie. The Greatest Game Ever Played is another good one.

        Sorry about that guys. I'm still waking up and have yet to crawl out of bed and into the kitchen to obtain coffee.
        I don't think I've seen The Greatest Game Ever Played yet. I did get to catch Dead Solid Perfect in the last week. It was pretty good. Found it on YouTube.

          Greatest Game Ever Played is a lot better than Bagger Vance, imo. Tin Cup is fun. Favorite part is the back nine entirely with nothing but a 7- iron.

          I read the book, "The Greatest Game Ever Played" before the movie came out. Someone gave me the book for either my birthday or for Christmas, I can't remember which. It was very good and I looked forward to the movie when I heard it was coming out. I enjoyed both.

          The Squeeze is a decent golf movie. Based on a true story I believe.

          Listened to an old podcast (2018) with the writer of Tin Cup - Ron Shelton. Some great insights. This guy also wrote Bull Durham, White Men Can't Jump, etc.

          He always wanted to write a golf movie, but needed a hook. Chip Beck laying up at the '93 Masters gave him the idea - write a story about a guy that cannot lay up. The idea that what makes someone great can also be his downfall.

          Also, they were failing at getting any PGA Pros involved; then they turned to McCord. Instead of calling the agents, McCord called the player's wives. ''We will cover the costs and you will get dinner with Kevin Costner". Suddenly they had PGA Pros involved. 😁

            Not a fan of fantasy golf movies either, "The Greatest Game Ever Played"" was by far the best. The guy who played Vardon in the movie was the best. Made me want to read about the real Vardon, though.
