Good Good Golf Fallout Is Talk of Tour Championship
Major questions still remain for the brand and its partners.
Good Good, the content creator group, is currently facing a storm of controversy surrounding its driver ad. As the Tour Championship commences in Atlanta, the incident has become the focal point of discussions. The biggest partners affected—Callaway, the PGA Tour, and Golf Channel—are dedicating resources to damage control efforts.
Co-founder Garrett Clark, CEO Matt Kendrick, and Callaway's President Chip Brew have all released statements and apologies. Initial brand messaging was perceived as lacking accountability, leading to criticism. Callaway and Good Good disagreed on liability, with sources revealing tensions between the two companies. While many Callaway endorsers will participate in the Tour Championship, the brand's executives won't be on-site.
Callaway is conducting both internal and external investigations and has removed Good Good products from major retailers. The PGA Tour's inaugural Good Good Championship, scheduled for November, is now uncertain due to the fallout. PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp admitted the situation is fluid, and the event might not proceed as planned without a primary sponsor.
Meanwhile, Golf Channel postponed its "Big Break x Good Good" show premiere, due to the presenting sponsor dropping out.
