Background and Acquisition
In March 2021, Callaway acquired Topgolf for $2.6 billion, culminating in the rebranding as Topgolf Callaway Brands. With Topgolf boasting 70 venues at the time of acquisition and a plan to open 11 new venues annually for the subsequent years, the initial outlook was promising for the merger.
