Waynesburg Central graduate Robert Rohanna and the other 11 golfers in Season 23 of the Golf Channel reality series were introduced Jan. 26, 2015, as a lead-in to the series premiere the next week.

The reality series was filmed over 16 days in September, 2014, on four PGA National Resort & Spa’s courses: The Champion, home to the Honda Classic that features “The Bear Trap,” a demanding trio of holes (Nos. 15-17); The Palmer, designed by Arnold Palmer; The Fazio, a Web.com Tour Qualifying Tournament course; and The Squire, named for Gene Sarazen.

In addition to Rohanna, the field included: Brandon Hartzell, a 4-year letterman at Delta State University; Chad Pfeifer, a Purple Heart recipient whose left leg was amputated above the knee in April 2007 while serving as an Army corporal in Operation Iraqi Freedom; Clay Meyers, winner of the 2012 Southwestern Athletic Conference championship; George Bryan, a 3-time NCAA All-American who holds the lowest single-season stroke average and lowest all-time stroke average at the University of South Carolina; Justin Martinson, a 4-time winner on various mini-tours since 2011 and the 2-time Delaware Open champion; Kyle Scott, a 3-time All-America between West Florida and Georgia Tech who is coming back from a back injury in 2012; Richy Werenski, who won three of the first five events after turning professional and holds three records at Georgia Tech; Tommy Schaff, a 25-time winner on various mini-tours; Tyler Neff, a 2-time All-America at Cleveland State Community College; Wesley Bryan, golfed at South Carolina; and Zach Portemont, a 4-year letterman at Troy University with two professional wins in 2014.

The competitors played for more than $120,000 in cash and prizes over the 11 episodes. The winner of Big Break The Palm Beaches, FL received more than $80,000 in cash and prizes.
