Seven’s Holey Moley confirms premiere date as it goes up against Channel Ten’s The Amazing Race

Channel Seven have conformed the premiere date for their reality show, Holey Moley. 

The mini golf competition will begin airing at 7:30pm on February 1st, Mumbrella reported on Friday. 

That will pit it against Network Ten’s The Amazing Race, which confirmed the same air date earlier this month. 

Both shows will compete with The Australian Open, which will begin on February 8th. 

Holey Moley will see golfers Montana Strauss, James Carr, Colette Norton, Becky Kay and Henry Epstein appear, Mumbrella reports. 

Channel Seven said in their announcement: ‘The ultimate winner of each episode takes home the prestigious plaid jacket, the golden putter and books a spot in the Grand Final, where they will compete for the chance to win $100,000 on the daunting last hole, the Tomb of Nefer-Tee-Tee.’   

The Amazing Race Australia completed filming in November and was filmed entirely in Australia, after the Covid-19 pandemic made international travel impossible.

The show will launch after the finale of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! on January 31.

But there’s still going to be plenty of drama and adventure, with a diverse group set to battle it out for the $250,000 prize money.   

Earlier this month, all 28 contestants, which make up 14 teams, were revealed. 

They include a pair of Gold Coast influencers, a pair of rodeo star cowboys, and  a former professional soccer player, who also happens to be related to the Nigerian royal family.

Host Beau Ryan will return to the forefront, while Holey Moley sees hosts Rob Riggle and Matt Shirvington return along with golfer Greg Norman.
