THE PRO
Based on the novel by Mike Shropshire, and a screenplay by Gigi Gaston, THE PRO is a comedy about ex-golf pro Del Bonnet, a natural born reprobate who wins redemption despite his best efforts to fight it at every turn. The novel was published to great acclaim in 2001 and released in paperback in 2002.
Synopsis
Del Bonnet, who gives golf lessons to the pacemaker set at a backwoods Florida resort, has a big problem: he loses a job he never wanted in the first place and has nowhere to go and nothing to do. Out of the sheer luck that is sometimes the product of necessity, Bonnet acquires a golf club with supernatural powers and a caddy with limitless nefarious instincts. This bizarre partnership takes on the Senior's Tour and encounters equal measures of fame, fortune, chaos, love and hilarity.
