She helps him chart a path to a successful future through the great friendship that they develop. But will the relentless pull of alcohol addiction derail his plans? And what role does the old golf ball play in helping E.J. find his way? Find out in this unique golf story full of humor, pathos, and perhaps a touch of magic.
