Marc Feldman/WireImage.comNearly 30 years ago, Bill Murray failed to topple that damn gopher in Caddyshack. Now he's apparently taking out his frustration on bystanders.
The 58-year-old funnyman took to the green for the Outback Pro-Am and ended up taking out a spectator.
Gayle DiMaggio, a resident of the Tampa Bay golf course community, was just trying to catch a glimpse of the star from her backyard when Murray's tee shot hooked to the left and whacked her upside the head.
"All of a sudden I felt this explosion in my head. I thought I was having a stroke because I just felt something go off," explained DiMaggio.
While she was eventually taken to the hospital and treated for a minor head injury, the former SNL castmember made it up to DiMaggio by filling her wait for the ambulance with lots of laughs.
"He leaned down next to me, [asked] 'How many fingers?' Then he just starts his comedy routine. He lifted my shirt. He gave me belly-tickles. He was great! If you're going to get hit in the head by a ball it might as well be [by] Bill Murray, who is the reason I was out here to begin with."
Belly-tickles aside, Murray did feel guilty about his wayward tee-off and handled the situation by doing what he does best—making a funny: "They took her to the hospital and she's going to have plastic surgery done; get her ears pulled back and her eyes done."
While watching the Pro-Am from a safe—and indoor—location the following day, DiMaggio only asked one thing of Murray: an autographed copy of Caddyshack.
