• Plot

  Caddyshack takes place at fancy Bushwood Country Club and centers around young caddy Danny Noonan (Michael O'Keefe). Danny has aspirations of going to college, but his only chance is to win the caddy's scholarship given out by Judge Smails (Ted Knight). Danny also meets the cool and smooth Ty Webb (Chase), who teaches him life lessons.

  Smails is perturbed by the arrival of the loud and comedic real estate tycoon Al Czervik (Dangerfield). Smails also enlists Carl Spackler (Murray) to rid the golf course of a pesky gopher.

  The story comes down to a battle of "snobs vs. slobs" when Ty and Czervik must team up against Smails and his partner Dr. Beeper in a high stakes round of golf, while, in the meantime, Carl attempts to get rid of the gopher once and for all.
