I’m honestly stunned how well he took that shot to the head. I don’t think your average person probably understands how fast those balls are flying.

You get drilled by a golf ball, and it’s going to hurt. That’s just a fact. It’s not something you can just shake off generally speaking.

Yet, Syme took it like a champ. He didn’t seem rattled at all. In fact, he took it to the dome, dusted himself off and looked fine afterwards.

If that’s not toughness, then I simply don’t know what is. I would probably have been rolling around in pain for hours.

Props to Syme for not immediately quitting after taking a golf ball to the head, which is what I’m sure most of us would have done.
