Watch: Young fan who got hit by a Patrick Mahomes ‘Match’ drive gets a moment with the QB

For one particular fan, getting hit with a ball during “The Match” will provide the memory of a lifetime.

One of the dangers of watching a golf match played by amateurs is that you might get struck by a golf ball.

For one particular fan, getting hit with a ball during “The Match” will provide the memory of a lifetime and some special memorabilia to go along with it.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes pelted a young fan in the hip with a golf ball during the course of the charity golf game last Thursday. The ball hit the fan and then rolled back on the green to about 25 feet away from the hole. Mahomes made it up to the young fan, autographing a golf ball and his sideline credential.

“I’m going to sign a ball for you, my man,” Mahomes said. “Where did it hit you at?”

Mahomes even called over Travis Kelce to provide his autograph, though we didn’t get to see him sign anything.

Mahomes wasn’t the only one to hit a fan with a ball during the course of the game. Warriors star Klay Thompson also struck a fan in a much scarier incident.

As for the fan who encountered Mahomes’ golf ball, this is sure to be a memory that he’ll one day tell his kids and grandchildren about and he’ll have the golf ball and credential signature to prove it.
