Plot
In St Andrews, Scotland in 1866, 15-year-old Tommy Morris is an avid golfer like his legendary and pioneering father, Tom Morris. “Old Tom” is greens-keeper for The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, as well as the town’s club- and ball-maker. He is the two-time winner of the first major golf tournament, The Open Championship, which he founded in 1860. He also established golf’s standard of 18 holes per round. But young Tommy is beginning to chafe at his father’s dictates, especially in the rapidly changing world they live in. Tommy soon outshines his father, winning The Open three times in a row while still in his teens. The “dashing young man of golf”, he draws flocks of spectators to the sport and becomes its first touring professional..
“Your station in life was set well before you were born”
Lovely heartfelt biopic, history, and drama
Old and Young Tom
Golf’s Founding Family!
It’s a birdie not a bogey!
Probably best for fans of the game, never quite delivers its potential impact
Wonderful movie… just happens to center on the history of golf
Golfing history
History of a Life
“Tommy’s Honour” tells a heart-felt and interesting little-known story, but isn’t as impactful as it should have been.
Tommy’s Honour! Very Good!
Great film of a true story.
You May Remember this, The Rest of Your Life
Engaging, delightful journey that warms and informs.
a well-made but dull historical drama about golf
Boring movie
True and terrible
