Watch unrecognisable Kirsty Gallacher accidentally smack golf ball off Nick Faldo in amazing throwback video | The Sun

FOOTAGE has emerged of a young Kirsty Gallacher accidentally hitting Nick Faldo with a golf ball.

The former Sky Sports News presenter was filmed teeing off but actually missed the ball with her almighty swing.



And unfortunately for Faldo Gallacher struck the ball with her backswing, hitting the golfer in his shin with the ball.

An embarrassed Gallacher immediately apologised and rushed to help Faldo, who instead tries to run off the pain.

He is heard saying: "Got that one on file. It will be alright on the night and so will my leg!"

Gallacher let out an embarrassed laugh before Faldo embraces her, and it seems the incident still haunts the broadcaster.

And in response Gallacher tweeted: "Oh sorry Nick!!!! I felt horrendous 😬🤣."

Gallacher hails from golfing stock with her father Bernard becoming the youngest golfer to take part in the Ryder Cup.

Cousin Stephen Gallacher is also a golfer and achieved a career high ranking of 31.
