Mini Review - The Phantom of the Open

The Phantom of the Open (out Jul 14) is based on a true story and follows a hapless golfer (Mark Rylance) who sneaks his way into qualifying for the 1976 Open Championship. It's loose with the facts but Rylance is solid and it's hard not to cheer for a guy with such blind optimism. Grade: B-.
