Christopher Hammons (born April 1, 1978), is an American lawyer best known for competing on the reality competition shows Survivor and The Amazing Race.
[1] In 1995, his father Billy Lowell Hammons was arrested in Arkansas on drug possession charges and, after pleading no contest, was subsequently sentenced to serve up to 40 years in prison.
[4] After the 1998 season, OU head coach John Blake was fired,[5] and was replaced by Bob Stoops,[6] who awarded Hammons a full scholarship after becoming impressed by the redshirt walk-on's leadership abilities.
That year, Oklahoma finished the regular season undefeated, won the Big 12 title, and was invited to play Florida State in the Orange Bowl on January 3, 2001, for the national championship.
[1] Hammons graduated Oklahoma in 2001 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history, and would later attend law school and earn his Juris Doctor.
In 2005, Hammons was at the law office one day when he met a young physical therapy student named Jennifer Prochaska.
During the reward challenge on Day 11, he made a huge defensive move in the water by restraining opponents Justin "Jay" Starrett and Adam Klein simultaneously, allowing teammate David Wright to swim to the goal and score a point for Takali.
On Day 13, a tribal reshuffle took place, and Hammons was switched to Vanua, formerly the tribe consisting entirely of millennials.
Before Tribal Council on Night 23, it was Hammons who suggested that his alliance vote out millennial Michelle Schubert, as she was perceived as being unlikely to possess, and play, a hidden immunity idol.
In the end, the entire jury, including Hammons, voted to give Klein the title of Sole Survivor, over finalists Hannah Shapiro and McNickle.
