This is based on his best-selling book “The Greatest Game Ever Played: Harry Vardon, Francis Ouimet and the Birth of Modern Golf.” It tells the true story of the legendary 1913 U.S. Open in which Ouimet, a 20-year-old golf amateur from Massachusetts, shocked the genteel golf world by defeating British champion Vardon, the most famous pro golfer of his time and the inventor of what today is still considered the modern grip and swing. Weaver will play John J. McDermott, the defending champion at the event, who has no intention of letting leading British golfer, Harry Vardon, take the championship.
