Garrett Clark's Apology: The Ad Detail That Sparked Controversy

Share Post

Good Good Golf cofounder Garrett Clark issued a public apology after his company produced a promotional video that has since been pulled from broadcast.

“I personally want to apologize for playing a role in this skit [and] this ad at the magnitude that I did,” Clark, 26, said in a social media video shared Wednesday, August 26. “On Good Good’s behalf and Good Good marketing’s behalf, I wanted to say an apology as well because this is not at all what we stand for. The way that this ad was received was not how Good Good is, and it’s not what we stand for, once again.”

Good Good Golf recently teamed up with Calloway to release a co-branded driver. In a commercial promoting the club, Clark appeared to shove Alexis Miestowski to the ground for trying to touch the driver. The video subsequently raised eyebrows for seemingly glorifying violence against women, leading to Good Good Golf and Calloway pulling the campaign altogether. (Clark maintains that he did not physically touch Miestowski, 26, during production.)
