It was a tough final for the Italian Francesco Laporta at the BMW PGA Championship. It was a painful lap for his swing coach.
A stray Laporta shot on the 13th par-4 hit Pietro Consenza on the left side of the head. Laporta’s trainer was treated and bandaged by medical staff. He was noticeably bleeding under the cover, but Consenza stayed to watch his student graduate.
Laporta, two-time Challenge Tour winner, led a 54-hole lead into the finals of a European Tour for the first time in his career. Events. However, a 2-under 70 dropped him in a tie to eighth place, four behind the winner Billy Horschel.
