The Golf Channel cancels its reboot of reality competition series “The Big Break,” shelving the planned debut season after Good Good Golf withdraws as title sponsor. The reboot was set to premiere Tuesday, Aug. 25.
Both outlets attribute the cancellation to the change in sponsorship tied to controversy surrounding “Good Good.” Yahoo Sports reports the cancellation occurs in conjunction with Good Good’s involvement, while Deadline specifies that Good Good steps away as title sponsor, leading the Golf Channel to shelve the debut season rather than proceed without that partnership.
The reports focus on the immediate impact on the show’s launch, rather than detailing the underlying controversy or any alternative plans. As a result, the available coverage centers on what the network does—cancelling the reboot’s debut season—after the sponsor change, with no confirmed timeline for a rescheduled release.
