No. 327 in the American World After hitting a fan with his errant tee shot, Peter Uihlein was left with his hands on his head. The 32-year-old is a member of the renegade Saudi-backed LIV Golf series. It has now convinced Bryson DeChambeau, Patrick Reed, and Rickie Fowler to compete in the upcoming tournament in Portland.

In St Albans, however, Uilhein hooked a tee shot well left, and his pleas of “Fore” were not audible by others on the fairway.
The ball flew through the air and struck one unfortunate fan, who crashed to the ground.
Despite what looked to be a serious injury, many around the unfortunate spectator did not seem sympathetic.
One even KICKED the victim while he lay unmoving on the ground.
Uihlein stopped with his palm on his head, apparently concerned, but the afflicted fan appeared to be playing about.
He soon rose to his feet and was seen giving out high-fives after already being hit by the ball.
In a sweet gesture, an apologetic Uihlein sought out the viewer after the event and gave him an autographed glove.
As Uihlein confessed to hitting him with his errant shot, the two exchanged warm embraces.
But all people on social media could talk about was the subtle kick up the posterior from the afflicted fan’s uncaring pal.
As of currently, the LIV Golf inaugural tournament in London will not be broadcast on television. However, according to a press release, the event will be televised “on a global roster of premier premium and free-to-air networks giving coverage in 138 countries throughout the world.”
It’s unclear whether any of those transmitters will appear on television, but the website promises that additional information will be available shortly.
