A great story came out of the FedEx playoffs last weekend.
One unfortunate fan – named Blake Krassenstein – was on the receiving end of Cam Smith’s drive down the 7th hole, taking a hit to his thumb as well as his iPhone.
The standard handshake and signed glove is expected from a pro who hits a wayward one into the crowd, but Smith took it a step further.
@MattVincenziPGA @TapItIn3 A quick Cam story from Saturday, he smoked my thumb and phone with his drive on 7. Walked over shook my hand, signed his glove for me, wrote down my cell # in his yardage book and ordered me a new phone. Unreal moment. pic.twitter.com/y0pHLFan9k

Blake took to Twitter to inform us that Smith not only signed a glove for him but took down his cell number and ordered him a new phone. In fact, it was an upgrade.
Smith texted Blake the next day with estimated arrival times, and it landed as promised this morning.
A great story to come from the weekend, not least because Smith is taking some heat due to his affiliation with the LIV series and what seems to be an imminent departure from the PGA Tour. It’s great to see he will go out of his way for his fans.
