NEW YORK Callaway Golf is eyeing Omnicom Group’s OMD for its media chores after a review, according to sources.

Sources said WPP’s Mediaedge:cia also contended. The client split with its previous media shop, KSL Media, about two months ago. A KSL rep described the split as “mutual.”

The client spent $50 million on ads in 2007, and $30 million through the first five months of 2008, according to Nielsen Monitor-Plus.

OMD referred queries to the client, where a rep said only: “We have nothing yet to announce.”
