Picking just one can be hard, but give it a try! I’m looking for recommendations.
Almost impossible to just pick one. But for the sake of the exercise, how about Tin Cup? I’ve been a golfer my whole life from a small town, played in college, etc, so the golf and underdog part of the story really hits home. Kevin Costner is amazing and funny too, so yea, I would say this is one of my faves.
You are right. Impossible to pick just one.

The longest yard,very funny Burt Reynolds is superb.
Bull Durham-A story centered around a minor league club with a love story for the catcher (Kevin Costner) with baseball and a veteran baseball ‘Annie’ (Susan Sarandon).
Rocky III- Maybe the best stylized boxing match in movie history…and Clubber Lang, “PAIN”.
North Dallas Forty and Any Given Sunday…must have watched both a dozen times…lol
I love watching Trouble With The Curve, a big Eastwood fan.
“Remember The Titans” - It was the first movie my husband took me to when we started dating. Great cast, great characters, and a true story to boot, which is something I always enjoy.
Fear Strikes Out–Great black and white film.
Hoosiers–Gene Hackman is superb in this film.
