Sunshine Tour player hit his ball with his golf ball, was penalized
He incurred a penalty that probably hurt less than the outcome of his shot
Here’s a short video from Saturday of a golf shot by Sunshine Tour player Jacques Kruyswijk who ended up taking a shot in the “family jewels”…
We’ve all made a 7 before, but it probably didn’t hurt this much! @jakesgolf62 pic.twitter.com/IRp0rsIycA

The penalty for your own ball striking you, your partner, either of your caddies or any of your side’s equipment is a one-stroke penalty in either stroke play or match play. Prior to 2008, it was a two stroke penalty.
Kruyswijk carded a seven on the hole but it was more than his ego that was hurt…
