Big Break: Dominican Republic
Golf Channel, beginning at 7am
GOLF Channel continues its Big Break Mondays marathon with an encore presentation of Big Break Dominican Republic on Monday, the series’ 14th season featuring a reunion cast of Big Break’s most captivating and polarizing personalities. Big Break Dominican Republic will air in its entirety from 7am-6pm ET with a special encore of the final two episodes from 9-11pm ET. Filmed at Casa de Campo Resort in the Dominican Republic, the series features 12 aspiring professional golfers – six men and six women – in a team competition. The teams compete in a variety of golf challenges per episode, with the ultimate goal of knocking the other out of contention. The winning team at the conclusion of the 10-episode series shares the grand prize of $100,000, with $50,000 going to the most valuable player (MVP), who is crowned Big Break Dominican Republic champion. Big Break Dominican Republic contestant (and current host of Golf Channel’s School of Golf) Blair O’Neal is scheduled to join Morning Drive on Monday at 9am ET to recount her experience on Big Break. Additionally, members of the cast are scheduled to engage on Twitter throughout the day on Monday and in primetime for the final two episodes using #BigBreak. Tom Abbott, host of Big Break Dominican Republic, also will engage on Twitter via @TomAbbottGC. “Big Break Dominican Republic was one of my favorite seasons hosting,” Abbott says. “Being a reunion cast, we could hand pick the best personalities for the show. Throw in one of Pete Dye’s masterpiece golf courses in ‘Teeth of the Dog’ and you’ve got the recipe for why Big Break was such a hit series.”
Six women, six men, one goal = Win #BigBreak Dominican Republic ⛳
