Jon Rahm’s errant shot in the first round of the PGA Championship reportedly hit and injured ESPN anchor Sage Steele Thursday. Steele was "covered in blood" after Rahm was heard yelling fore, an eyewitness told The Quadrilateral. The witness told the SubStack Steele was "on the ground, holding her nose, mouth or chin area." Steele has not posted anything on social media about the injury. ESPN was covering the first two rounds of the PGA Championship and will defer main afternoon and evening coverage to CBS on Saturday and Sunday for rounds three and four. Rahm’s errant shot found its way back to the fairway. He saved par on the hole. Rahm finished the first round 3 over par. He registered two birdies, three bogeys and one double bogey. He was 1 over after the first nine. On Friday, Rahm bounced back, finishing 1 under par. He had three birdies and two bogeys during the round. He was at 2 over par through the tournament.

I was 16 and had just gotten my license. I was driving on the road parallel to a hole at the local country club when a ball landed not far in front of me (coming right at me) and bounded right over my car from bow to stern. If I’d been at that spot a fraction of a second sooner, it would have come right through the windshield and I probably wound’t be here to tell the tale. That was damn scary and I still remember it 54 years later! God was with me that day.
Got hit square in the back with a golf ball. Stupid me was in the wrong place.

“For the love of Mike, it’s I COULDN’T care less what her politics are.”
None of them know that. Grammar is a lost science.
Ouch. On New Years Day about 2002, my son and I were standing by the first tee box waiting for the foursome ahead of us to tee off. A woman in that foursome caught an in-flight ball right on her elbow. What a way to start off the new year!
