According to the USGA, more than 10,000 golfers are injured each year by errant golf shots, of which approximately 58% of these injuries are as a direct result of shots hit by their playing partners. Too often, this leads to tragic results.
Gentlemen, don't allow yourself to become a statistic - remember to stand behind your playing partners at all times as they address the ball, and be alert for shots that may ricochet off trees, ball washers, port-a-johns, and other indigenous hazards.
In a related local story, the Chambliss-Miller wedding, scheduled for May in Maui, has been postponed indefinitely. As this story went to press, Matt's bride-to-be, Jamie, was searching for a white linen eye patch to pair with Matt's wedding togs. No word yet if the groom's ensemble will include a stuffed parrot on his shoulder.
