What happens

The Big Break is an American golf reality competition series. Premiering on October 6, 2003 on Golf Channel, the series features aspiring professional golfers competing in various skills challenges for a chance to win a prize package, usually featuring a sponsor exemption for one or more tournaments and/or developmental tours. The series originally ran on Golf Channel for 23 seasons from 2003 through 2015, after which the series was cancelled amid cuts by the network. Under new ownership (Versant), USA Network (which Golf Channel is a subsidiary under the new ownership) announced in October 2025 that the series would be revived for a 24th season, in collaboration with the golf-oriented media company Good Good.
