McLaren Goes Golf: Luxury Irons and a High-Stakes Rose Partnership
McLaren launches McLaren Golf with Justin Rose as its first confirmed player, introducing two iron sets priced at £360 per club (about $485) and initially excluding woods. Rose helped shape the irons and will test them in competition, signaling a bold push into the golf market. The move faces hurdles including competition from established brands, the risks of a late-career equipment switch for Rose, and whether luxury, high-cost clubs can gain traction beyond a small segment and brand ambassadors like Ian Poulter and Michelle Wie West.
