Callaway Admits It Approved Good Good Video That Pushed Woman to the Ground

Callaway’s admission has triggered internal and external investigations and raised sponsor and PGA Tour scrutiny over Good Good’s role in a November event.

Overview

  • Good Good Golf posted a 60‑second promotional spot for a co‑branded driver that showed co‑founder Garrett Clark shoving Alexis Miestowski; both companies removed the clip and issued apologies after public outrage.
  • Callaway CEO Chip Brewer acknowledged in a statement on Tuesday that Callaway approved the video before it was posted and said the approval ‘should never have happened,’ announcing internal and external investigations and changes to approval procedures.
  • The PGA Tour called the content ‘concerning’ and said it is monitoring Good Good’s title‑sponsor role for the November tournament in Austin as broadcasters and sponsors review partnerships.
  • Golf Channel postponed the premiere of a Good Good–related show after at least one sponsor sought to remove branding, and reports say online product listings tied to the co‑branded driver were examined or pulled.
  • Good Good’s CEO said the spot was meant as a horror spoof, pledged donations and a creative‑process review, and the episode highlights risks in influencer‑led marketing and tensions over portrayals of gendered violence as golf works to broaden its audience.
