HOLEY MOLEY – “Love at First Stroke” – Chris Harrison swings by the “Holey Moley” course for a special love-themed episode where contestants compete for a romantic date in the final round on Double Dutch Courage. Eight single mini-golfers see if they can hit it off while they tee it off, hoping to fall in love before they fall into the icy water. Tricky ball placements on Hole Number Two lead to trick shot attempts, while a contestant’s near-perfect putt is derailed on Uranus; and the “Holey Moley” lifeguard becomes one competitor’s knight in shining armor as he saves her from the soapy Putter Ducky water. Elsewhere, Chris Harrison teaches Jeannie Mai how to pick the perfect rose, all before the most dramatic final putt in “Holey Moley” history on THURSDAY, JULY 9 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC.

A bonus of having My Chemical Romance lead singer Gerard Way the co-creator of your show? He might create an original song for its trailer.
“I was originally inspired to write this track when series one of THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY was being shot; by the time I finished it 2020 was in full swing, the world had taken a profound turn and the song was finished in a surreal new reality,” Way said in a statement. (He co-created the graphic novel with Gabriel Bá.)
