This is the horrifying moment a golf fan cheated death by standing in front of world No. 8 golfer Max Homa while trying to play in the Players Championship.

In an attempt to film a (now viral) TikTok, an anonymous golf fan got too close for comfort on the 14th hole and was nearly hit by a ball outside the gross.

In the clip, Homa can be seen lining up for a shot during his third round at Sawgrass, before shooting a ball just inches above the fan’s head, much to the surprise of him and the other fans who were near him. he.

Homa was asked about the terrifying incident before his final round on Sunday, and confirmed that he hit a tree, and not a fan, in the clip.

Asked if he thinks fans get too close in situations like that, the American said: “Yes, mostly.” I asked them to step back and they took their usual three or four steps back.

“He was trying to get much higher than that. I probably should have asked them to move more, but I didn’t know I was going to stab him.

‘Normally you ask them to move and they take two steps back. I just think it’s for your own safety. I’m glad I didn’t hit anyone, it was scary.

“I was trying to go way beyond that… but it gave some people a good story, I heard some people laugh, so at least they got that out.”

Homa scored nine quadruple bogeys on the hole, but will no doubt be glad everyone came out unscathed.
