The chances are "in the nano range". Nevertheless, Lars Heuer has put all his eggs in one basket: he quit his job as a management consultant to dedicate himself to his golf dream for a year, until November 2025.
The goal of Project 0 is as ambitious as it is crazy: to make the leap from a solid amateur handicap of 20.4 to the level of a scratch golfer 0. But what is behind this decision? In the first episode, accompanied by Sky, Lars provides in-depth insights into his motivation - and confronts the honest, unsparing assessment of his new coaches.
"Project 0" is the story of Lars Heuer, a 53-year-old former management consultant who made a radical decision in November 2024: he gave up his job to improve his golf handicap from 20.4 to the level of a scratch golfer (handicap 0) within a year.
This is no ordinary sports project: Lars is taking a financial risk and dedicating his life for 365 days to the dream of making the impossible possible. He trains up to 40 hours a week to achieve this. As he says himself: "I have decided to live my dream, with all the consequences."
Experts estimate the chances of achieving this goal as minimal - but Lars is prepared to go the full, holistic way, which goes beyond pure physical training and includes the areas of mental training, nutrition and regeneration.
The first episode sheds light on the radical decision behind Project 0. For Lars Heuer, it is the realization of a dream and the courage to realign his life: He quit his job to prioritize his desire to write his own story over financial security. At the same time, head coach Florian Fritsch makes it clear how unlikely this undertaking is - a critical expert assessment that immediately becomes the first major hurdle.
To meet this challenge, Lars relies on a professional, holistic approach that fills his 40-hour week: from athletics and mental coaching to detailed structured training plans with daily chip and pitch sets. The search for the "quick trick" is over. Lars is prepared to toil to prove that unconditional commitment to this project can disprove the critical expert predictions.
Success in this ambitious project is only possible as a team. Lars Heuer is supported by a first-class network of experts who work under professional conditions.
Sporting management is the responsibility of renowned former professional golfer Florian Fritsch (head and swing coach), while Heinz Peter Thül (former Germany's No. 2 behind Bernhard Langer) provides the expertise for the short game. The team is complemented by a putting expert, a home coach, a mental coach, a sports nutritionist and a medical contact point. "Project 0" will also be accompanied by a detailed video diary on YouTube.
