| ->> I am fine. Had a bit of a bruise on the meat of my calf. Mike, I was almost perpendicular to the reporter making his swing. I am at an almost 80 degree angle to him. So, with that said, he really had to gleam the side of the ball with one hell of a slice to hit me. ... which he did. |

->> Ouch...... I've covered alot of golf, pro and amateur, and you always need to be ready to move just incase when you get weekend hackers in pro-am events....
Saying that I have been nailed by a top tour pro on an instructional shoot, so you never know !!!
Great footage, hope the bruise heals quickly !! |

->> I'm glad you are OK, and I hope you weren't hurt more seriously! I think your calf will heal; this camera lens smashed by Tiger Woods from 60 yards will not heal:

| ->> next time stand directly in front, you probably have less of a chance to get hit considering his skill level. |

->> Jay,
Awesome point. The guy that hit me is our Utah Jazz beat reporter. The funny thing is that after we gave him a mulligan for hitting me, he went on to get a par for the hole. |
