Exclusive: Owen Wilson on the Surprising Snack He Wishes Was Available In-flight—and Why He'd Never Choose This Airplane Seat
Once intimidated by golf, Owen Wilson is now ready to hit the links around the world after learning how to play the sport for his new Apple TV+ series, Stick . With renowned golf courses across the globe to choose from, like St Andrews Links, Pebble Beach, and the Fairmont Banff Springs, there are plenty of destinations for Wilson to visit—and the Hollywood star has already added some to his list. 'There's one in Ireland called Adare Manor that I visited before I played golf, and it was just a beautiful place,' Wilson told Travel + Leisure in a recent interview . 'I know that that's where they're going to do the Ryder Cup in a few years, so I would like to go back there and play.' In addition to Adare Manor, the host of the 2027 Ryder Cup, there is another course—home to the iconic Masters golf tournament—that Wilson would like to check off his list. 'I would love to play, obviously, Augusta [National Golf Club], that's maybe the most famous in the world,' he said. Unlike pickleball and padel—activities Wilson picked up while traveling and brought home with him—golf was more of a challenge for the actor to learn ahead of his role in Stick . He plays a former golf pro named Pryce Cahill who discovers a teenage golf prodigy in the Apple TV+ series, which also stars Peter Dager, Marc Maron, Mariana Treviño, Lilli Kay, and Judy Greer. Owen Wilson with Peter Dager in Stick. 'I was a little bit intimidated by golf because my dad was a very good golfer. I had never seemed to be able to pick it up. And I just thought, 'Okay, this is one sport I'm just not going to be able to do,'' Wilson admitted. 'So when [series creator] Jason Keller first kind of spoke to me, I think that sort of anxiety made me nervous about, you know, could I sort of do it in a way that would feel good? And Jason has a nice quality of reassurance and just got me to think, 'Yeah. Okay, you can do this.'' 'And I started taking some lessons, and then I discovered that whoa it isn't this, you know, mysterious thing. It will yield to practice,' he continued. 'That's been the great thing for me about working on this, is learning something new.' Window or aisle? Window. I mean, I don't even see how somebody could possibly not take the window because it's just better for sleeping. I don't know why anyone would ever pick aisle… I don't know, are there any aisle people out there? That's like asking, 'Do you like bumper-to-bumper traffic or just flying along on the freeway?' Go-to travel snack? Well, I love nachos. I don't know if that's a travel snack… [feigns asking a flight attendant] 'Could you make some nachos?' There could be an opening though for them to, you know, bring that in. At least quesadillas they should be able to do. One thing you can't travel without? [Laughs] Nachos. Favorite thing to do on the plane? It's nice when you can sleep if it's a long flight. This will sound funny because you don't necessarily love sitting next to someone who's a big talker, but sometimes you'll sit next to someone who's really interesting that is great to talk to. Are you the talker? Sometimes if I sense the person doesn't want to talk to me, that makes me more likely to talk to them. I had this person that I was happy to see they were reading when I sat down, but as soon as I sat down, they said, 'I cannot put this book down,' and then put it down and started telling me about the book. Dream vacation spot? A place that I haven't been—but lately I've been curious about—is Istanbul. I would like to visit. Pitt Meadows Golf Club in British Columbia, Canada, was one of the golf courses where Stick was shot, in addition to other "spectacular courses' in Vancouver. Stick creator and executive producer Jason Keller told T+L, 'We had the good fortune of being able to spend some time on some really great courses up there. And they look beautiful, and it was fun. I mean it was tricky shooting on a golf course, especially with Owen, because between takes, he would sometimes grab a golf cart and go work on his chipping somewhere else. And so sometimes it necessitated me having to go and find him to bring him back to shoot the show.' 'What I'm hearing you say is that 'Owen was a workaholic. Even when we were taking a break, this guy would be working,'' Wilson interjected. Keller pointed out that, in that way, Wilson was 'really kind of a method actor' during this shoot. 'I was. For the first time in my career, I decided, like, let's see what all this method acting is about,' Wilson said with a laugh. While the golf comedy debuted on June 4, the actor plans to stick with the sport. 'I'm on the back nine in life, and I see this carrying me right to the 19th hole,' Wilson said. In fact, Wilson also revealed that he recently traveled to Australia, where he played on a 'beautiful golf course.' 'That's a great thing to do when you're traveling,' Wilson said, 'Because there's a lot of beautiful golf courses around the world.'

The Open 2025: Odds and favorites entering the first round at Royal Portrush
Paul McGinley, Brandel Chamblee and Rich Lerner discuss Rory McIlroy's legacy and the history of golf in Northern Ireland, analyzing the past political climate and more. Royal Portrush hosts the 153rd edition of The Open Championship, and Northern Ireland's own Rory McIlroy is among the betting favorites entering the men's final major of the season. But he's not THE favorite. That distinction belongs to world No. 1 and reigning PGA champion Scottie Scheffler. Masters — and Grand Slam — champ McIlroy is a clear second choice, with Jon Rahm, who has three top-10s in his last four Open starts, third. 2025 Open Championship odds (as of Monday, courtesy DraftKings): Scottie Scheffler: +450 Rory McIlroy: +700 Jon Rahm: +1200 Bryson DeChambeau: +2000 Xander Schauffele: +2500 Collin Morikawa: +2800 Tommy Fleetwood: +2800 Ludvig Åberg: +2800 Viktor Hovland: +3000 Tyrrell Hatton: +3000 Shane Lowry: +3000 Robert MacIntyre: +3500 Sepp Straka: +5000 Justin Thomas: +5000 Joaquin Niemann: +5000

The Story with Rory: McIlroy's Post-Masters Struggles Show Human Side of Greatness
The Story with Rory: McIlroy's Post-Masters Struggles Show Human Side of Greatness originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The tears streaming down Rory McIlroy's face as he embraced his caddie and long-time friend, Harry Diamond, on the 18th green at Augusta National in April told the story of an emotional 10-year journey. After a decade of heartbreak and mounting pressure, the Northern Irishman finally captured the one major championship that had eluded him. His playoff victory over Justin Rose at this year's Masters didn't just add a green jacket to his wardrobe — it meant that he was now part of the game's most exclusive club, career Grand Slam winners. Advertisement Only five other men in the modern era have achieved this feat: Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods. McIlroy became the sixth, and at 36, he joined an elite fraternity that seemed destined for him yet had remained frustratingly out of reach through multiple close calls at Augusta. Surprising Struggles Follow Historic Win But what happened next shouldn't surprise anyone who understands human psychology, even if it has puzzled golf fans and critics alike. Since that emotional win, McIlroy's play has been on quite the rollercoaster ride. He tied for 47th at the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, a course where he had previously won four times. Advertisement He missed his first cut of the year at the RBC Canadian Open, shooting rounds of 71-78, something that left fans scratching their heads. At the U.S. Open, he managed a tie for 19th but looked disinterested, almost detached from the competition that once drove him to greatness. His performance at Oakmont was perhaps the most telling of this stretch since Augusta. Rory McIlroy speaks at a press conference during this year's U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club; June 10, 2025; Oakmont, Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images Post-Achievement Depression is a Real Thing His play since the Masters exposed a phenomenon that psychologists have studied extensively for years. While sports fans may struggle to understand what's going on with their favorite champion, what science calls post-achievement depression, also known as the post-reward resetting phenomenon, is indeed a real phenomenon. Advertisement A real psychological condition that affects everyone, from Olympic athletes to college students graduating and professionals finally landing their dream job. You may have experienced this yourself in your life. What happens in the brain releases dopamine as a reward during the pursuit of a goal, and this level can drop significantly after the goal is achieved, leading to a sense of emptiness. When someone's identity becomes heavily tied to pursuing a specific accomplishment, achieving it can create an identity crisis about who they are beyond that singular focus. McIlroy spent the better part of a decade chasing the Masters. Every April brought renewed hope but also inevitable disappointment. The pursuit gave his career structure and meaning. Now that the chase is over, it's entirely natural that he would experience a psychological letdown, regardless of how much money he has in the bank or how many other tournaments he's won. Parents' Sacrifices Shaped Champion's Drive Consider McIlroy's journey to this point. Born in Holywood, Northern Ireland, to parents who worked multiple jobs to fund his golfing dreams, Rory was introduced to the game at age 2 with a set of plastic clubs. His father, Gerry, worked 100-hour weeks, cleaning toilets in the morning, tending bar at the golf course during the day and working nights at a sports club. His mother, Rosie, worked night shifts at a factory while caring for Rory during the day. They rarely saw each other during those early years, as they sacrificed everything for their son's talent. Advertisement That upbringing instilled in McIlroy a work ethic and humility that have served him well throughout his career. But it also created enormous internal pressure to justify his parents' sacrifices. The Masters represented the ultimate validation of their belief in him, the final piece of a puzzle they started assembling when he was barely old enough to walk. Now that the puzzle is complete, McIlroy is experiencing what many high achievers face: the arrival fallacy, the false belief that reaching a particular goal will bring lasting happiness. The reality rarely matches the imagined expectations, leaving even the most successful people feeling surprisingly empty. Even Champions Remain Human This is where perspective becomes crucial. McIlroy isn't broken or finished or past his prime, despite what some critics might suggest. He's human. He's a father to a young daughter, a husband navigating the complexities of marriage and a man reflecting on the achievement of his life's greatest goal. The fact that he happens to be extraordinarily gifted at hitting a small white ball doesn't exempt him from the psychological realities that affect everyone.

Playing in front of his home crowd in Northern Ireland, where his journey began, could provide the emotional spark needed to reignite his competitive fire. He's spoken about how an Open at Portrush represents one of the few remaining mountains he wants to climb. But if he struggles there, too, it won't mean he's done. It will simply mean he's still human, still processing one of the sport's greatest individual achievements. At 36, McIlroy has years of elite golf ahead of him. He's already proven he belongs among the game's immortals. Everything else is just a bonus. Advertisement The golf world should cut Rory McIlroy some slack. He's earned it, and more importantly, he's shown us that even our sporting heroes are beautifully, imperfectly human. Related: What's Not to Like About Robert MacIntyre?
