Storyline
Following a meltdown that leads to a suspension, professional golfer Zoe Papadopoulos travels to her grandparents' village in Greece to escape the harsh spotlight of the international sports world. Between baking bread and eating baklava, she meets and mentors a ten-year-old girl who is determined - against all odds - to become the next golf sensation. Along the way, Zoe rediscovers her Greek heritage, her love of the game, and the hidden strength within herself as she inspires the townspeople in an epic showdown against a greedy American developer.

The story is formulaic, but the characters and surroundings makes this a warm, family friendly movie. Themes of redemption, family, loyalty, mentorship and faith are all woven into the story. Standouts include the main lead characters, especially the Greek Orthodox priest. Shannon Elizabeth is a very effective lead and carries the movie, and John O' Hurley chews up the scenery as an over the top megalomaniac villain. The scenes are gorgeous. Makes one want to take a golfing vacation to Greece!
