Fore! Aaron Wise gets drilled in the head by errant tee shot at PGA Championship


TULSA, Okla.  – Aaron Wise took one in the noggin on the seventh hole at Southern Hills during the second round of the 104th PGA Championship on Friday.

Wise, who shot 69 in the opening round, was minding his own business and playing the par-4 hole when Aussie Cameron Smith, playing the adjacent second hole, drilled him on the fly in the head with a tee shot that flew 316 yards to the right into the wrong fairway.

“He looks OK, he’s standing up,” an ESPN reporter walking with Smith’s group said of Wise. “He’s looking at his yardage book.” He was also seen holding a cold water bottle against his head.

Wise, 25 and the winner of the 2018 AT&T Byron Nelson, managed to make par at Nos. 7 and 8, but bogeyed the ninth hole to shoot 2-over 72 on Friday. Smith, meanwhile, scrambled for par at No. 2.

After the round, Wise sought medical attention and was seen holding an ice pack to his head.
