Plot Synopsis
Surrounded by the Topgolf experience in Las Vegas, SHOTMAKERS is a seven-round golf competition that features nine co-ed teams of two pairing up in head-to-head competitions that test precision, distance and control -- all while facing intense pressure and strategic decision-making. The 18 competitors include a former PGA TOUR professional, mini-tour professional golfers, an Olympian, former collegiate athletes, a former World No. 1 World Long Drive competitor, a trick-shot artist, decorated military veterans, and champions from the Topgolf Tour. SHOTMAKERS is co-hosted by three-time college national player of the year Amanda Blumenherst and golf host Shane Bacon, along with Golf Channel reporter Chantel McCabe and social media correspondent Alexandra O'Laughlin.
