WATCH: Dude Gets Drilled By Golf Ball Hit By Tiger Woods
- Updated: July 22, 2018
Ever wonder what it’s like to get hit with a golf ball by Tiger Woods? Well, here’s your chance, minus the physical pain.
The 14-time major winner held the solo lead – a lead in which he held for the first time during a major in 7 years – through 10 holes on Sunday at the 147th Open Championship at Carnoustie.
But disaster struck on the par-4 11th when he hit his approach wayward into the gallery, striking a fan who happened to be recording the whole sequence on his phone.

Woods went on to make double bogey and fell out of contention finishing T6, his best finish in a major since 2013.
However, the fan did get a signed glove out of the deal which we are 100% jealous of.
Class is permanent.

Would you want Tiger Woods to hit you with a golf ball?
For us, it’s a no-brainer … absolutely. For a signed glove by Big Cat? We’d do terrible, horrible, no good very bad things. If that means talking one straight to the dome, so be it … whatever we could do to help the team!
