Golf equipment company Callaway faces public criticism over a driver advertisement showing violent behavior against women. The video showed a woman being shoved onto the floor. Good Good Golf co-founder Garrett Clark shared an apology following public backlash over the offending commercial.
The backlash resulted in swift consequences across the golf industry. Retail stores cleared items from their shelves. A scheduled Big Break reboot was pushed back by one week. In addition, the PGA Tour decided to drop sponsors associated with the ad, leaving a tournament at risk of cancellation.
