Tonight’s episode is titled “Let’s Split!” and will see the six remaining teams travel from Switzerland to Croatia as they take on physically demanding tasks.

Chris Hammons & Bret LaBelle Are Eliminated During Tonight’s Episode

According to GoldDerby, it is the team comprised of Chris Hammons and Bret LaBelle who are the last to complete tonight’s challenge. They are eliminated and sent home, leaving five teams to compete in next week’s episode. Hammons and LaBelle are former Survivor contestants who proved themselves adept at various challenges throughout the season.

LaBelle, 44, previously said that the duo’s biggest challenge would be the speed and intensity of the challenges. “Our biggest competition will be the Racers because they have done it all before and we are new to the Race,” he told CBS. He also felt that his time on Survivor helped him get as far into the competition as he did. “Survivor taught me how to work with people and make alliances which [helped] us in the race to strategize with other teams.”

Hammons, 40, shared a similar outlook on his past reality TV experience. “Survivor definitely helps prepare you for the The Amazing Race!,” he said. “You learn to be extremely adaptable on Survivor and I feel those skills are very necessary to overcome the challenges on The Amazing Race.” Hammons is an attorney who practices in his native Oklahoma.

The duo will join Rachel and Elissa, who were eliminated during last week’s episode in a tense U-Turn challenge. The latter discussed their elimination during a recent interview with Parade. “Rachel was super upset because she had never been eliminated from the race. She was embarrassed because she’s so competitive,” she revealed. “She told me going in, ‘I’m not doing this with you if we’re not going to win.’ But we were both there to win, and we thought we could win. We’re both super competitive and intelligent.”
