If you wanted to get a new driver, this at least gives you a chance it may be free. If Phil Mickelson or Rocco Mediate win the US Open in two weeks, your Callaway driver is free...
You don't even need to buy the driver, just mail in the form and they will send you the driver if either of them win:
If you Participated by Mail : If Phil Mickelson or Rocco Mediate win the 2009 US Open, the Sponsor will mail you the Promotional Item you indicated on the Official Entry Form within 12-16 weeks after the conclusion of the US Open. No cash or other substitution is allowed except by the Sponsor who may substitute a Promotional Item with another item of equal or greater value if the Promotional Item you designated becomes unavailable, as determined by the Sponsor in its sole discretion.
edit: However you can only get the entry form from the store. Will not accept copies:
Participate by Mail : To participate without making a purchase, visit any golfsmith retail location, and ask a caddy for an Official Entry Form. Complete the Official Entry Form and mail it to the address indicated on the Form (Go Phil and Rocco Promotion; Dept 11 ; PO Box 6168 ; Douglas , AZ 85655-6168 ). Submissions must be postmarked by June 17, 2009 . Submissions will not be acknowledged or returned and proof of sending will not be deemed proof that the submission was received. No copies of an Official Entry Form will be accepted .

Anyone see the form online? I'm not having much luck...

At least this has a better chance than the Sergio promotion.

Guarantee, we'll soon see mail-in forms on eBay. That being said, if you want a mail-in form, you better hustle to a golfsmith store. This promo has already been out for over a week.

Is Phil even playing in the Open? He put his season on hold indefinitely to help his wife battle cancer.
AUSTIN, Texas, Jun 03, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- golfsmith International Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:GOLF) is teaming with Callaway Golf and PGA TOUR professionals Phil Mickelson and Rocco Mediate to give golfers an opportunity to get new drivers, free of charge, in one of the biggest promotions the golf industry has ever seen.
Starting today and ending June 17, golfers who purchase one of three new Callaway drivers - the Big Bertha Diablo(TM), FT-9 (R) or FT-iQ(R) - at any golfsmith store across the country will have the purchase price of their Callaway driver fully refunded by golfsmith if either Phil or Rocco wins the U.S. Open at Bethpage Black in Bethpage State Park in New York, June 18-21. "This event gives golfers two great chances to get their Callaway driver purchase fully refunded with two of the best golfers in the world," said Martin Hanaka, president and CEO of golfsmith. "Coupled with Callaway's current promotion that provides a fairway wood or hybrid for $1 with the purchase of a new driver, there's no better time to buy than right now at golfsmith." Rocco's memorable performance throughout last year's historic U.S. Open at Torrey Pines is still fresh in the minds of sports fans everywhere. Mickelson has already won three major tournaments in his amazing career and has claimed two PGA Tour victories thus far in 2009. Together, both players present an excellent chance for golfers to significantly upgrade their arsenal of equipment at no cost.
"We're thrilled that Callaway's three latest and greatest drivers, as well as two of our staff professionals, are featured to generate excitement among golfsmith's customers," said Brian Groves, Vice President, Marketing, Callaway Golf. "With Father's Day approaching, Phil and Rocco may have more fan support than ever before at this year's U.S. Open."
I picked up a couple of forms yesterday. They would only give me two. Sorry, for those that asked, but I gave the extra form to my brother. It's just a standard 8.5 x 11 form with a bunch of survey questions. The form can't be copied, because the forms are numbered (in red).
The Moorestown, NJ, store had a lot of forms, but I could only get two too. The form also says that if one of the players doesn't play (Phil might be home w/ his wife) they can substitute another player. No guarantees, but it makes the deal even better.
Currently, this deal isn't looking too bad. Phil is in 3rd and Rocco is in 4th. I know it's only middle of the 3rd round, but this deal is making it more exciting to watch.

They're in the middle of their 1st rounds, knucklehead.
