The headlines about Cam Smith have been mixed lately, to say the least, with buzz about the British Open winner potentially joining LIV Golf.
But this? This is really positive and good.
Smith apparently hit a fan with a bad tee shot recently — maybe it was as bad as the one he hit Aaron Wise with at the Players Championship? — which nailed the fan’s phone.
The fan reported that Smith signed a glove, wrote down the guy’s phone number and said he was ordering a new phone.
Well, the phone came … and it appears it was an upgraded iPhone. Pure class:
Good stuff
@MattVincenziPGA @TapItIn3 A quick Cam story from Saturday, he smoked my thumb and phone with his drive on 7. Walked over shook my hand, signed his glove for me, wrote down my cell # in his yardage book and ordered me a new phone. Unreal moment. pic.twitter.com/y0pHLFan9k

Cam Smith accidentally smashed a Memphis fan's Phone with an errant drive last week. Buying him (an upgraded) new phone is cool, but his casual handing out of his number to a fan is even cooler. He's cut from a different cloth https://t.co/CVQ3QbBAVq
