Golf equipment company Callaway faces public criticism over a driver advertisement portraying physical violence against women. The video depicted a woman being shoved onto the floor. Good Good Golf co-founder Garrett Clark issued a personal apology following widespread pushback over the controversial clip.
The backlash caused immediate fallout across the golfing world. Retail stores cleared items from their shelves. A scheduled Big Break reboot got postponed by one week. In addition, the PGA Tour moved to cut sponsors associated with the ad, leaving a tournament in danger of being canceled.
