If you asked us to watch golf and it wasn’t in a movie, we admit that we may look at you as though you’ve lost your mind. Though we do understand that some people enjoy playing golf, it’s definitely not for us.
But it’s 2024 and we can appreciate that Hallmark is starting off the year with a movie that motivates us to get outside. Will it motivate us to play golf? No. But it may motivate us to visit Budapest.
The first movie of the year is entitled Love On The Right Course and stars Ashley Newbrough and Marcus Rosner. You may remember them from Flipping For Christmas. We admit that Flipping for Christmas wasn’t our favorite movie, but Ashley Newbrough and Marcus Rosner do have on screen chemistry, so we are looking forward to seeing them in Love On The Right Course.
WHAT IT IS ABOUT
Whitney (Newbrough) is a professional golfer who is struggling to make the cut to qualify for her next tournament in Europe. Concerned that she might not be able to continue competing on a professional level, she returns to Budapest and the golf course her family owns there to reevaluate her career. She finds that her father (Roy McCrerey), who has grown reclusive since losing his wife two years ago, has handed over day-to-day operations of the club to a laid-back, new golf pro, Daniel (Rosner). Daniel’s casual style is at odds with Whitney’s, and it throws her off her game, literally. As the pair get to know each other, their perspective changes and a romance develops. But, when Whitney’s former trainer returns and pushes Daniel out, it might just cost Whitney her best shot at love.
