Harris English's errant tee shot on hole #1 in The Players at TPC Sawgrass hit volunteer Denny Meredith of Jacksonville right off the top of the dome yesterday. The ball bounces off his hat like it was made of concrete, must have hurt like a *****.
According to Jacksonville.com, "Meredith never lost consciousness but was transported back to the main First Aid center near the volunteer center. He was later taken by private car to Baptist Beaches to undergo tests. English walked over to Meredith and apologized for hitting him, then autographed his glove and thanked him for volunteering. Matt Kuchar, English’s playing partner, also autographed a glove for Meredith and thanked him for his service." Service in this instance means "taking a hard golf ball off of your noggin."
