Iowa teen who lost everything in tornado asks for new golf clubs on TV — and scores them

An Iowa teen who lost his home in Tuesday’s deadly twister lamented in a TV interview that his beloved golf clubs were destroyed by the calamity — and was swiftly gifted a new set.

“I lost a lot, including my golf clubs,” said Bradley Gebbie, who graduated from high school two days before the natural disaster, to WHO-13 in a clip that has since taken off on X.

The teen was interviewed in front of a wrecked home in Greenville, where at least five people died and dozens of others were injured when the powerful tornado tore through the tiny town of about 2,000, located 55 miles southwest of Des Moines.

“I had like three grand into that,” the teen said of his golf clubs.

The teen then smiled and quipped, “I’d like to shout-out Taylor Made and Titleist and Callaway,” three golf equipment companies.

“I really need a new set. I lost it, and I just love golf,” he said, drawing a smile from the reporter interviewing him.

Sports reporter Keith Murphy took to X to share the clip, writing, “Hey @Titleist @TaylorMadeGolf @CallawayGolf, which one of you wants to help this young man who lost his home in a tornado? Have a listen please.”

The tweet prompted several replies from golf club brands, including Callaway, which said it was willing to help the young man get a new set of clubs.

In a second post to X, Murphy said the teen, who graduated from Nodaway High School on Sunday, will be given a full set of clubs and gear from Callaway Golf.

“Bradley was on the Wolverines’ golf team and his sense of humor at a tough time is inspiring,” Murphy added.

Tuesday’s tornado left widespread devastation in the small Iowa town, where mounds of broken wood, branches, car parts and other debris litter neighborhoods where homes once stood.
