Film is a fictionalized story honoring the real-life sports and civil rights heroine Ann Gregory, the first woman of color to enter a USGA tournament.

Ann Gregory collides in the USGA Women’s Amateur with Babs Whatling, a privileged white woman from the South. The story centers on the women’s head-to-head competition in a single match with flashbacks that add rich context to the personal struggles that have shaped each of them. For both Ann and Babs, the game is as much about finding inner strength as it is about overcoming obstacles on the course.
