We’re getting a Ted Lasso season 4, but Apple TV Plus has another sports-centric comedy for viewers, Stick, starring Owen Wilson and centered around the world of golf.
Created by Jason Keller, who is best known for writing 2019’s Ford vs Ferrari, and executive produced by Wilson, this new TV series sees Wilson star as a washed-up former golf pro that takes one more shot at glory when he discovers a potential golf phenom. And not only will the new series feature Wilson and a group of other well known actors, but also some of the biggest names in golf today.
For more information on all of this, read on to get everything you need to know about Stick.

Stick plot
Here is the official synopsis for Stick:
“Owen Wilson stars as Pryce Cahill, an over-the-hill, ex-pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely 20 years ago. After the collapse of his marriage and getting fired from his job at an Indiana sporting goods store, Pryce hedges his bets, and future, entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom named Santi (Peter Dager). Stick is a heartfelt, feel-good comedy about a found family and their relationships set within the world of golf as it has never been shown before.”
