The golf misses have had a great history. However, in the past, the balls that missed the fairway either ended up on the rough or on the spectator’s side. But with the ongoing AIG Women’s Open, something unexpected happened, which almost left the professional injured. During the third round, Charley Hull swung hard from the tee, but the ball went way off. From the first angle, it seemed to be ending up in an awkward position, but it bounced just before Minjee Lee, who was teeing off from the 17th.
The horrifying incident left the golfer in shock, and now, after the round, she broke the silence about the once-in-a-lifetime encounter. During the post-round press conference, the moderator asked, “How about on 17 tee with that golf ball? Did you hear it coming, or did it first bounce before you noticed it was coming?”
Sharing for which Minjee Lee said, “Yeah, I’m glad it bounced big because it flew straight over me. Some lady or man called out for a left, so I was like, oh, it’s not coming this way, but it came right over me. It was trying to take me out.”
