Will Ferrell Returns to Golf Comedy | Fargo News

Will Ferrell swings back into action with his new Netflix golf comedy The Hawk, where he plays Lonnie “The Hawk” Hawkins — a once-great pro who crashed and burned after choking on a putt in 2004. Now, armed with a Walmart parking lot caddy and a wild imagination (he talks to his golf balls), Lonnie’s chasing a comeback in smaller tournaments, much to the delight of fans and the fury of the PGA. But his path is rocky: his ex-wife and especially his son — also a pro golfer — are furious, while his son’s wellness influencer fiancée is the only calm in the chaos. Ferrell leans into his trademark goofball energy, blending golf absurdity with heartfelt moments, and even channels his real-life love for the game. Can Lonnie win the Open and win back his kid? The answer is pure, ridiculous Ferrell — and somehow, surprisingly touching. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
