The US star, 29, sliced his approach shot right of the green before it clattered into the head of his wife Maria. 2 Duncan hit his own wife Maria on the head with a stray, 202-yard approach Duncan blamed "mud on the ball" for the poor shot - and was fortunate the ball had already bounced once before hitting her on the head. During the shot, the commentator can be heard saying: "He's probably going to lose this to the right. "That's off the noggin' - luckily that one had already had the sting taken out of it." Even then, it's fair to assume Duncan didn't hear the end of it from Maria that night - and later tweeted about the incredible stroke of misfortune. Duncan tweeted: "Men- don’t try this at home! @PGATOUR @attbyronnelson". The poor shot on the 13th hole led to his only bogey in an otherwise near-flawless round at the AT&T Byron Nelson in Dallas, Texas. MARIA UNHURT Duncan finished the second round with a five-under 66, leaving him tied for second - five shots adrift of leader Kang Sung-hoon. Incredibly though, it was only after he'd finished his play for the day he realised he'd managed to hit his own wife. Duncan explained: “I had a little mud on the ball, little unfortunate timing there and shot out to the right. “Took a big bounce and hit her, I guess. I didn't know until after the round. "I'm just happy she's not hurt, and I was with her a while ago.” The US golfer then revealed it's not the first time poor Maria has been hit by a stray ball.

Which is good, because he’s probably going to be buying his wife some expensive gifts after hitting her in the head with a golf ball. The most unfortunate event occurred on the par-4, 13th hole. Duncan has definitely seen better days. So has his wife, Maria. Watch: “I had a little bit mud on the ball on the left side,” Duncan told CBS Sports. “I didn’t really think it would affect (it) too much.” Tyler Duncan is having a great week at the @attbyronnelson…except for the shot where he hit his wife in the head.

However, despite the fact she wasn’t quite standing by her husband, Mrs. Duncan might want to consider standing a little farther away from her husband.

Tyler Duncan, who sits in second place through two rounds at the AT&T Byron Nelson, accidentally hit his wife in the head after his approach shot sailed wide right. (Stuart Franklin/Getty Images) Tyler Duncan is off to a great start at the AT&T Byron Nelson this week. Duncan fired a five-under 66 on Friday at Trinity Forest Golf Club, which jumped him into a tie for second place heading into the weekend after his opening-round 64 on Thursday. The 29-year-old recorded six birdies and had just one bogey on Friday, too. That lone bogey, however, ended up taking an errant bounce off a fan near the green. Well, not just any fan. Duncan’s ball hit his wife, Maria, on the head. Duncan’s approach shot on the par-4 13th sailed wide right of the green and took a bounce before hitting Maria and landing about 34 yards from the green. Thankfully, Maria wasn’t hurt — and wasn’t even impacted by the shot. Duncan only found out about the incident after the round. “I had a little mud on the ball, little unfortunate timing there and shot out to the right,” Duncan told the PGA Tour. “Took a big bounce and hit her, I guess. I didn’t know until after the round ... I’m just happy she’s not hurt.” Duncan is currently tied with Matt Every in second place after two rounds at the AT&T Byron Nelson. The duo trail leader Dung Kang, who shot a 10-under 61 on Friday, by four strokes. Brooks Koepka, who will attempt to defend his PGA Championship title next week at Bethpage Black, is in fourth place at 11-under. So, luckily, it seems all is well in the Duncan household.
