Roy “Tin Cup” McAvoy is a former golf prodigy who lost his chance to become a professional golfer when he attempted a risky shot for the final round of the PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament rather than taking a safer shot. He owns a ramshackle driving range in West Texas, where he drinks and hangs out with his pal Romeo Posar and their friends.
One day Dr. Molly Griswold, a clinical psychologist, arrives looking for a golf lesson. She has been dating David Simms, a top professional golfer who played with Roy at the University of Houston. Roy is attracted to Molly.
The next day, Simms shows up at Roy’s trailer ahead of a local benefit tournament. Roy thinks he is being invited to play, but Simms actually wants to hire him as a caddie. To get even with Simms and prove his worth to Molly, Roy decides to try to qualify for the U.S. Open.
In the first qualifying round, with Romeo as his caddie, Roy’s game is excellent, but he insists on playing recklessly. Despite breaking most of his clubs in a tantrum, Roy advances to the final qualifying round. On the first day of the U.S. Open, Roy shoots a horrendous 83. However, with renewed confidence, he shocks the golf world by making the cut and moving into contention.
On the last day of the tournament, Roy is in a three-way battle to win. Despite repeated failures to keep the ball out of the water hazard, Roy finally manages to make an amazing shot that leaves a lasting impression. Back in Texas, Molly tells Roy that he automatically qualified for next year’s Open. They kiss passionately as the movie ends.
