Woman At Ryder Cup Blinded In One Eye By Koepka (Usa Team)

Yes awful

but going to sue the organisers???

Come off it, she walks on to a golf course to watch an event - she should be fully aware there's an associated risk of being hit, however small.

It's like folk moaning about having golf balls land in their gardens/windows in houses on a golf course. Owners don't stand a chance legally as you buy the house with a known risk - and how many golf courses are built between the houses once they have been constructed - no it's the other away around. And if one sells the house, then the risk is more than apparent.

The only exception is if she can prove Koepka did it deliberately - me thinks not, even in France.

Views....?

Medical costs will be met by the golf course public liability insurance, surely.

Maybe the woman was dazzled by the white transparent trousers of the players ;)

Golf tournament, claims yet another victim.
