A golf fan took a dramatic tumble after he was struck by a ball at the controversial LIV event in Hertfordshire.
The Saudi-backed breakaway tour is currently in its maiden event with some of the sport's biggest names involved.
Dustin Johnson leads the field, which also includes Phil Mickelson, Sergio Garcia, Ian Poulter, Lee Westwood and a host of others.
Bryson DeChambeau has become the latest player to sign up, despite all those competing being banned from the PGA Tour.
American Peter Uihlein was on the tee when he shanked his shot left, imitating to the crowd that the ball had not gone in the desired direction.
As spectators rushed to get out of the way, the ball unfortunately struck one gentleman who first fell to his knees, then on to his back.
He was at least conscious as he rolled over while other fans enquired over his wellbeing.
The LIV golf tour continues to cause controversy, with stars criticised for taking the huge sums of money on offer despite the obvious moral dilemma.
Poulter, a veteran of the Ryder Cup whose involvement in future editions of the event is now under scrutiny, has confirmed he will appeal his ban from the PGA Tour.
“I will appeal for sure. It makes no sense," he said.
“Having two Tour cards and the ability to play golf all over the world, what's wrong with that? I didn't resign my membership because I don't feel I have done anything wrong.
"I have played all over the world for 25 years. This is no different ... it's a power struggle and it's just disappointing."
Spaniard Garcia and Irishman Graeme McDowell have pleaded with the European Tour not to take the same course of action as their PGA counterparts.
“I resigned because I don't want to get into any legal battles with anyone,” Garcia said. “But I haven’t resigned from the European Tour because I would like to still be a member. I'm European, I love the European Tour. I played it for 23 years.
“Obviously we're going to have to wait and see what the European Tour does. But I definitely would like to keep my membership and get my chance to make The Ryder Cup Team because I love that event. But we'll wait and see what happens over there.”
McDowell added: “I felt like the PGA Tour was going to take the hard stance. Will (DP World Tour boss) Keith (Pelley) follow suit? I hope he doesn't.
"I think he has a fantastic opportunity here with a lot of European players and European Tour players that would like to subsidise their schedule with other events, especially if we are not allowed to play on the PGA Tour.
"I really hope The European Tour makes a good decision. Watch this space.”
