Big Break returning to Golf Channel in 2026

Big Break is back.

The reality golf show with a cult following ran for 23 seasons on Golf Channel, and it was announced on Wednesday that it will return for a 24th season in August 2026. 

The latest season will take place at Horseshoe Bay Resort in Horseshoe Bay, Texas, in conjunction with the popular YouTube golfers behind Good Good Golf. 

Throughout the show’s history, Big Break has awarded aspiring professional golfers exemptions into select events on tours across professional golf, including the PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, DP World Tour, Korn Ferry Tour, and PGA Tour Champions. The winner of Big Break x Good Good will earn an exemption into the PGA Tour’s Good Good Championship, a new FedEx Cup Fall event which was announced Monday and debuts in November 2026.

Dating back to its debut in 2003, Big Break pits highly-skilled golfers against each other in a variety of skills challenges from tee-to-green, including two of the series’ signature challenges – the popular “Glass Break” and “Flop Wall” challenges – which will return for Big Break x Good Good. The last season of the show aired in 2015. 

Members of Good Good Golf will compete and be featured throughoutBig Break x Good Good. Brad Dalke and Sean Walsh will be two of the 12 competitors on Big Break x Good Good, Matt Scharff will co-host the season alongside Blair O’Neal, and Garrett Clark and Bubbie Broders will serve as non-playing team captains.

Tony Finau, Matt Every, the Bryan Brothers, Kristy McPherson and Gerina Mendoza are among the alumni who emerged from the show. 

“Bringing back Big Break in partnership with Good Good Golf is as good as it gets,” said Tom Knapp, executive vice president and general manager, Golf Channel. “Big Break is a Golf Channel institution that defined golf reality entertainment for 23 seasons. Good Good Golf is creating today’s version of golf entertainment and has redefined what ‘reality’ content really is. These two golf content brands will be a very powerful combination.”
