Former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice was playing golf at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am and hit a spectator on the sixth hole “after a bad swing went 50 yards into the gallery,” Yahoo Sports reports.
“The ball smacked the female fan in the forehead, causing what was later called concussion-like symptoms and while the lady that got hit wouldn’t give her name, Rice got an assistant to get her number so she could later contact her to make sure she was alright.”
