The Short Game

Contrasting parenting and coaching styles are on display as 7-year-old phenom Chloe takes on her friend and rival, Morgan. Meanwhile, to the great frustration of his father, Bryce struggles with his focus as he prepares for a tournament, and Bryant goes for a record 8 straight tournament wins.

At the Starburst Tournament in Waco, Texas, Sachin takes on his rival, Awesome, while his dad tries to keep him focused on the game. Awesome and his family are more worried about consistency and bringing his weight up. Their family lacks the funds of many of the competitors, so they put everything they have into helping him succeed. Meanwhile, 7-year-old Avery and her dad are preparing for the same tournament, where Avery will be battling girls two to three years her senior. Not that she's worried. She decides to dress in all black to “pay her respects” to the doomed competition, giving her an edge unless her attitude—or a looming thunderstorm—gets in the way.

Self-taught prodigy Max puts too much pressure on himself in the California State Championship, things get tense between Bryant and his dad on the course, and Avery sees the effects of her bad attitude when she watches tape of her last tournament.

With dad away, Sachin's mom fills in as caddy, hoping that her gentler approach will be just what Sachin needs as he takes on his rival Awesome. Meanwhile, Awesome's father pushes him hard to try to motivate him. And at the Ocean Breeze Tournament, Morgan and Madison go head to head while their fathers employ contrasting coaching styles of their own.

At the U.S. Kids Golf Texas State Invitational, Awesome fights burn out, Sachin tries to bounce back from a poor performance, and Avery takes on her greatest competition as she tries to defend her title: herself.

With Pinehurst just around the corner, Morgan can't get out of her head. Meanwhile, Chloe experiences pain in her hip, and Bryant tests his independence in a tournament that doesn't allow caddies.

Sachin gets a special blessing from his family, Bryant's independence becomes an issue with his dad, and a freak accident derails Awesome's plan to practice early at Pinehurst.

It's day 1 at the World Championships at Pinehurst, where Awesome gets a big surprise.

It's the second day at Pinehurst, where bad weather affects a few of the golfers' games.

It's the final day at Pinehurst, and while some player's dreams of placing are far out of reach, others battle it out for the title of Junior Golf Champion.
