Kirsty Gallacher took a big swing but completely missed the ball
The broadcaster then struck Nick Faldo with the ball on her backswing
Gallacher said that she felt horrendous about the incident at the time
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.
Faldo shared the short clip in a tweet alongside the words: “I had a bruise/bump for three months! Thanks, Kirsty Gallacher .”
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.

But it seems Gallacher lacks such hand-eye coordination despite staying in great shape.
