Steele in recovery

ESPN’s Sage Steele hopes to “recover quickly” at her Connecticut home after being struck in the face by Jon Rahm’s errant tee shot Friday during the PGA Championship.

The “SportsCenter” anchor had finished broadcasting and was headed out to the fairway along the par-4 third hole to watch the action at Southern Hills when a drive by Rahm, playing in a group with Collin Morikawa and Scottie Scheffler, bloodied her face. Rahm immediately signaled that his shot was headed for the gallery, but Steele was struck quickly and so violently that the ball bounced back into the middle of the fairway. She was treated and released at a Tulsa hospital and immediately flew home.

Rahm had no immediate reaction and it was not clear whether he was aware of the incident.
