Topgolf’s runaway success and unique golf experience has fostered a new golf competition, Shotmakers, which premiers on Golf Channel, April 9.

Billed as “an innovative new golf competition where precision shotmaking meets intense strategy,” the competition blends entertainment, golf, and technology.

Nine co-ed teams will compete at the Las Vegas Topgolf in elimination-style, head-to-head competition. Precision shotmaking, strategy, and, and decision making in a pressure-packed environment will define the competition.

“Shotmakers is a great opportunity to introduce a progressive approach to golf competition, featuring dynamic personalities from across the sports landscape,” said Phil Piazza, Golf Channel senior vice president of programming. “Shotmakers also will showcase what Topgolf has been doing for 17 years – evolving the narrative around golf and redefining golf participation.”

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 3-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. Shotmakers will feature seven rounds of competition airing two nights a week at 9 p.m. ET beginning April 9 and concluding April 30.
