TaylorMade has a huge presence in professional golf but a couple of months ago, Inbee Park was given the bum’s rush by the noted equipment maker.
Park carries four TaylorMade woods in her bag, the rest are Srixon. She’s been one of the finest players in women’s golf for what seems like forever. She has spent 100 weeks at No. 1 and won an Olympic Gold Medal.
But when he caddie tried to get her a new three-wood, five-wood and two rescue clubs, TaylorMade said that Park would have to pay for the clubs.
Seriously?
When you talk about inequality in men’s and women’s golf, there’s a typical example.
Sends a pretty stark message to the not-so-famous players on the LPGA Tour.
For TaylorMade’s outstanding contribution to equal opportunity in the game, we send EVERYONE at TaylorMade to the Dog House for an undetermined amount of time.
And they can check their clubs at the door.
