The Golf Patent Infringement Trial of the Year (Callaway Golf v. Acushnet); Apparently Phil Mickelson Isn’t Concerned with Burning Bridges

The Callaway Golf versus Acushnet golf ball patent infringement trial is in full swing. In fact, Acushnet’s case-in-chief was completed today.

In accordance with a Court order, Callaway has filed a “Proffer Regarding the Rebuttal Testimony of Phil Mickelson.” In other words, the Court essentially said that upon the close of Acushnet’s case, Callaway would have the opportunity to convince the Court that Callaway should be allowed to put Phil Mickelson on the stand to testify. Click here to view Callaway’s proffer.

The proffer contains some good mudslinging, check it out!

Did you know that Mickelson threatened to terminate his contract with Acushnet unless Acushnet came out with a solid ball to compete with Callaway Golf’s Rule 35 ball?

I hope that this trial makes it all the way to a verdict!
