Good Good Apologizes for Controversial Video Advertisement

Good Good, a renowned YouTube golf channel with over 2 million subscribers, recently issued an apology following the release of a controversial video ad. The advertisement, designed to promote the brand’s driver in partnership with Callaway Golf, included a scene where a man shoved a woman to the ground.

The video featured Garrett Clark, Good Good’s co-founder, pushing member Alexis Miestowski to the turf. Despite its deletion from the brand’s channels, the video continues to circulate online. Good Good addressed this issue directly, stating, “We posted a video to our channels that ultimately depicted actions that are not aligned with our values as a brand. We have since taken that content down. And sincerely apologize. Good Good has always stood for making the game of golf more inclusive to all, and we will continue to ensure that is our mission moving forward.”

Garrett Clark was seen participating in the 2025 Tour Championship Creator Classic, presented by YouTube, at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, Georgia. This event occurred before the TOUR Championship on August 20, 2025. While their apology confronts the issue, it raises questions about internal approval processes, as such a video required authorization before publishing.

OutKick has contacted Good Good for further comment and will provide updates upon their response. The advertisement begins with Miestowski reaching for a driver in a golf bag, which prompts Clark to sprint towards her, pushing her to the ground and declaring, “Do not touch my new driver.” The release of this content is surprising considering the multitude of individuals involved in its creation and dissemination.

In response to the situation, Callaway issued their statement, expressing their disappointment and appreciation for Good Good’s prompt addressal. “We are disappointed by the content that was posted, and are appreciative of Good Good for addressing this. We look forward to working together to ensure a more inclusive space in golf,” Callaway remarked in their statement shared with Golf.com.

The PGA Tour also commented on the advertisement, reinforcing golf’s role in fostering inclusivity and condemning any form of violence. “The PGA Tour believes in golf’s ability to bring people together and create a welcoming environment for all. We do not condone violence in any form, and the since-deleted video does not reflect our values or commitment to inclusivity and respect.” This statement is significant, given Good Good’s sponsorship of the upcoming Good Good Championship in Austin, Texas, this November.
