Reality Spotlight: The Big Break
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Sports, Cable, Gossip,

If you know the Golf Channel only as the one you skip on your way up to Fox Sports, you’re missing a whole lot more than coverage of the PGA. You’re missing at least one great reality show that blends sports, drama and elimination action - all on the backdrop of some of the most beautiful locales in America.
You don’t have to like, or even understand, golf to enjoy The Big Break action. It’s the classic reality formula with a twist - strategy is often replaced by sportsmanship (or, lack thereof).
The prize generally includes a brand-new car, a shopping spree for the best in golf supplies and the most coveted honor of all - a spot on a single PGA or LPGA tour event. The Golf Channel gives competitors their Big Break, but all the rest is up to them.
The Golf Channel
This season’s The Big Break: Ka’anapali features a field of professional female golfers, all vying for their chance to move forward in their chosen career. Even in sports, when women get together for reality TV drama will be the result. The challenges on Big Break test each competitor on every aspect of their game. Can they hit a tiny ball through a small pane of glass several yards away? Can they rescue themselves from a trap? Can they withstand the pressure when everything is on the line? They play against each other, but their greatest enemies are always themselves.
Tired of reality competitions which are full of back-stabbing, forgotten alliances and secret strategy? Give golf another shot.
