'Stick' cast share what they want next for their characters in Season 2: 'It starts at the top'
Warning: Spoilers for "Stick" Season 1, including the finale We've reached that bittersweet moment of the Apple TV+ show Stick where we've seen the season finale end on a high note, but that means we don't have a new episode to look forward to next week. Going into the finale with Santi's (Peter Dager) estranged father, Gary (Mackenzie Astin), showing up at his golf tournament, fans were interested to see how that dynamic played out. While Santi initially decides to switch out Pryce (Owen Wilson) as his caddie for his dad, when the pressure of the tournament is on and Santi makes some mistakes, we see Gary's verbal abuse. It's in that moment Santi realizes that while he hoped his dad would be supportive, things haven't changed from the circumstances of his youth. But Pryce is there to support Santi in a way Gary never has, as Santi chooses Pryce as his caddie for the final holes. As Pryce tells Santi it's completely his call how he finishes the game, Zero (Lilli Kay) starts singing Simon & Garfunkel's "Cecilia," as a way to calm down and support Santi. It's a song Pryce already revealed helps him get through stressful moments, and the whole crowd at the tournament follows Zero's lead and starts singing. Santi's success comes back to finish the tournament, but it's not enough to win. The season finale ends with Santi convincing Pryce to play a game of golf with him, telling Pryce to not take it easy on him. As Pryce strikes the ball, resulting in an "oh shit" reaction from Santi, the episode ends. 'I trust them more than any of my particular wishes and desires' With that finale moment, fans are wondering whether Season 2 could include Pryce's return to competitive golf, with creator Jason Keller telling Deadline that's something he'd "want to explore." For Lilli Kay, who plays Zero, while a romantic relationship blossomed between them and Santi, Kay wants Zero to be explored with more independence in Season 2. "My wish list for Zero is for Zero to get to come into their own, with their own passions and their own things, alongside ... getting to support [Santi] and encourage him," Kay told Yahoo Canada. "Knowing the sort of partnership they have, I know that he would show up for them the same way that they show up for him." But one thing Kay highlighted for Season 1 is the effective way that the show's creative team, Keller and executive producer and writer Christopher Moynihan in particular, crafted Zero, a gender-fluid character, in Stick. "This was a conversation that I had with Jason before even the chemistry read with Peter, 'I want to make sure that I'm the right person for this, ... that my identity is aligned with this character and what you're trying to do here,'" Kay said. "First of all, Jason just blew me away in that conversation. And second of all, we continued to have conversations every step of the way." "They were so inviting and welcoming and collaborative about all of it. ... We had a lot of the scripts and we were on the phone going, OK does this beat track? Does this make sense? And being that Zero and I identify the same way, I think that was a really helpful tool, because I was allowed to be in dialogue with everyone. It became just really organic and really easy to do that authentically, because it was just me." For Peter Dager, while he jokingly identified that he'd love for Santi to "have a six pack" in Season 2, he stressed that he has total confidence in the team behind the show to continue the story in a positive way. "It starts at the top," Dager said. "You can sort of save some things as an actor and make things happen on the day, but if the structure is good, then everybody who gets added to bring that thing to life, it's probably going to be good, or feel good." "Jason and Chris in the room, and Apple as a studio fully believing in it, it's felt throughout the whole set. And so if we get to do it again, I completely trust the people at the top to make sure that we've got a good story and everybody's fulfilled, and everybody feels like they've got something to do the next time. ... I trust them more than any of my particular wishes and desires."

Rutherglen Glencairn co-boss is looking to strengthen
The club are preparing for life in the West of Scotland Premier Division Rutherglen Glencairn co-boss Joe Pryce expects to add a goalkeeper after signing striker Josh Gemmell from Caledonian Braves. The 20-year-old, who signed on Tuesday morning, and is a graduate of Morton's youth set-up, was one of two trialists who played in Saturday's friendly at Glenrothes to mark the 50th anniversary of the sides meeting in the Scottish Junior Cup final. Glenrothes won 1-0 on both occasions, and was the final warm-up as Glens kick off their West of Scotland Premier Division campaign at Drumchapel United on Saturday. Pryce said: 'The reason they were trialists is purely because the forms hadn't gone through yet, but these boys will be joining us, that's for sure. 'At this time of year everything takes a bit longer, because everybody's putting paperwork in at the same time. 'But we had five of the under-20s up with us, helping us out. We had a few players missing through work commitments and holidays, but we made sure we participated in that celebration, because it was important. 'It was more about the occasion than the game, about celebrating the players from 50 years ago from both sets of clubs. 'The minute they invited us up, we were always going to go. It was a good day, the piper piping the old players onto the pitch, the Provost Jim Leishman being there – it was a terrific day, a great occasion, and something we're very proud to be part of. ' Pryce expects a fierce challenge from a Drumchapel side he reckons will be challenging for the title this season. He said: 'Pre-season has been excellent and we're ready for a really tough game on Saturday. 'Drumchapel are a good side, you can see some of the signings they've made, and they've added real quality to their team. 'They finished well last season in the top half of the table, and they'll be looking to go better than that. They're aiming for the top spot, and with the players they've signed, they should be. 'We're as prepared as we're going to be. We could have done with a few more bodies in the door, but they've got to be the right type. 'If we need to wait three or four weeks into the season to get them in, that's what we'll do. • Glencairn lost 3-1 in a friendly against Queen's Park under-19s at the Spiders' Lochinch training facility, with Ants Maguire getting the visitors' goal.

Is ‘Stick' returning for season 2? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on July 23, 2025, 18:30 IST Last updated July 23, 2025, 11:23 IST Apple TV+'s latest comedy hit Stick has captured audiences with its quirky charm, heartfelt moments, and plenty of golf drama. Starring Owen Wilson as a former golf star trying to turn his life around, the show has quickly built a loyal fanbase. With the Stick Season 1 finale out today, July 23, 2025, fans are already wondering: Is Stick coming back for Season 2? Here's a full breakdown of what we know about a possible second season. Quick Recap of Stick Season 1 Season 1 follows Pryce Cahill (played by Owen Wilson), a former golf prodigy whose career derailed after a very public meltdown. Now working in a sporting goods store, Pryce finds purpose again when he discovers 17-year-old golf phenom Santi Wheeler (Peter Dager). With the help of Santi's protective mom Elena (Mariana Treviño), his oddball former caddy Mitts (Marc Maron), and a mysterious drifter named Zero (Lilli Kay), Pryce takes another swing at redemption by coaching Santi through the amateur golf circuit. Blending Ted Lasso -style heart with Happy Gilmore -esque humor, the show has won over viewers and critics alike. It currently holds an 81% score on Rotten Tomatoes and has drawn praise for its character-driven storytelling and warm tone. Season 1 premiered on June 4, 2025, with three episodes dropping initially, followed by weekly releases. The 10-episode finale is now streaming as of July 23, 2025. Has Stick Been Renewed for Season 2? As of now, Apple TV+ has not officially confirmed a second season of Stick . That said, the signs are looking promising. The streamer has been quick to greenlight new seasons of successful originals like The Studio and Your Friends & Neighbors , and Stick appears to be on a similar trajectory. With strong audience engagement, solid reviews, and positive buzz on social media, Stick has made a strong case for another round. Even without a formal announcement yet, Owen Wilson and the show's creators have expressed interest in continuing the story — and the Season 1 finale leaves plenty of room for it. Expect an update in the coming weeks as Apple gauges viewership and feedback. What Could Happen in Stick Season 2? Season 1 ends on a high note, but definitely doesn't close the book. The finale leaves key character arcs still in motion — especially Pryce's emotional growth and Santi's rise through the ranks. If Stick returns, here's what Season 2 might explore: Pryce's Second Chance : We've seen Pryce make some big emotional strides, especially after confronting memories of his son Jett. Season 2 could dive deeper into his personal life — maybe even rekindling his bond with his ex-wife Amber-Linn (Judy Greer). Santi's Rising Career : The teen golf prodigy has just scratched the surface. A second season could see him competing at higher levels, dealing with new pressures, fame, and tougher opponents. There's also room for more real-life golf cameos like the ones we saw in Season 1. Family and Team Drama : Elena's complicated history with Santi's father (hinted at in Episode 9) could add depth to future episodes. Meanwhile, quirky teammates Mitts and Zero bring humor and unpredictability — two things Stick does best. New Courses, New Challenges: Season 2 could expand into new tournaments, locations, and storylines, keeping the underdog spirit alive while testing the team in new ways. Who's Expected to Return for Season 2? If Stick is renewed, most of the main cast will likely be back. Here's who we'd expect to return: Owen Wilson as Pryce Cahill Peter Dager as Santi Wheeler Mariana Treviño as Elena Marc Maron as Mitts Lilli Kay as Zero Judy Greer as Amber-Linn Final Thoughts: Will Stick Return? While nothing is official yet, the outlook for Stick Season 2 looks good. Between its critical praise, audience love, and a story that feels far from over, Apple TV+ has plenty of reasons to bring it back. Fans will just have to wait a bit longer for confirmation — but chances are, Pryce and Santi's journey isn't over just yet.

Powys town plays host to successful Nicky Grist Rally Stages
DALE Furniss helped Meirion Evans to second place at last weekend's Nicky Grist Stages in Builth Wells. The Llanrhaeadr co-driver partnered Evans in his in his Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 which ended two seconds behind rally winner William Creighton. The pair lost 12 seconds with a spin on the opening stage, with the majority of the time lost thanks to the car failing to engage reverse gear. The duo suffered had a puncture between SS2 and 3 and with grip levels compromised they arrived at mid-distance service in third place, 16.6 seconds behind the leaders. Evans enjoyed a good clean run in the afternoon and set fastest time on three of the afternoon's four stages, which moved him from third to second to give the Castrol MEM Rally Team a superb one-two result at the top of the podium. Osian Pryce got his preparations for an assault on the Roger Albert Clark Rally at the end of the year off to the best possible start with an outstanding performance. Driving a Ford Escort RS1800 Mk2 built and supplied by Wales Motorsport for the first time, the 2022 British rally champion from Aberangell was the fastest 2WD competitor throughout the 45-stage mile event held in the mid Wales forests in and around the Mynydd Epynt military range. Builth Wells mayor Mark Hammond flagged the cars away from the start of the Quinton Motor Club organised event from outside Strand Hall. Taking no risks and driving well within himself, Pryce and co-driver Phil Pugh won the hotly contested Historic section of the event by more than a minute, won the BTRDA Silver Star section, finished third in the overall Welsh Rally Championship section and came home first two-wheel drive in a magnificent 12th position overall. 'This was my first gravel rally for nine months and my first in an Escort since the RAC Rally in 2023, so I'm very happy with both our performance and our result,' said Pryce. 'I'm shocked that we won the Historic section by over a minute. I'm not sure if others had problems, but I've been driving at seven and eight tenths all day. Maybe that helped in the hot and abrasive conditions, because in some stages I backed right off to manage the tyres and the times were still good. 'I had a good clean run with no mistakes, nailed all the lines and the car's been fabulous all day. 'To just jump into a new car and drive it, without a single issue, has been an absolute pleasure. It really showcases how good Wales Motorsport is at building and running a car. 'For my first event back preparing for the RAC Rally, it could not have gone any better.' Pryce is supported by The Leading Edge, Demon Tweeks, Hills Ford, Bell, Haddo Energy, Superfast Properties, Red Kite Glass, Diogel Events, Gorsaf Betrol TyMawr, and his own family-run specialist building firm G+M Pryce.
