Golfing actor required for Paxton movie
An actor who can play golf is wanted to star as legendary British golfer Harry Vardon in a film based on the best-selling book The Greatest Game Ever Played: Harry Vardon, Francis Ouimet And The Birth Of Modern Golf.
The film, which will be directed by actor Bill Paxton, will tell the true story of the 1913 U.S. Open in which Ouimet, a 20-year-old amateur, shocked the golf world by beating British champion Vardon, the most famous golfer of his time and the inventor of what is still considered the modern grip and swing.
