How hard would he have had to hit it before it would not be idiotic to disqualify him?
Interesting story form High School. We were at practice and some one hit a ball high in the air just goofing around. He said look up and like a moron I did. Hit me right in the glasses which pushed the lens into my eye. No real permanent damage but the eye doesn't quite dilate fully and is a bit sensitive to bright sun light. The real funny (or not) thing is the father of the guy who hit it was an Ophthalmologist. They took me right over and he took care of it. Point being it doesn't have to be hard hit to do damage. On my honor that is a true story.
Senator Rob Portman's older brother William (goes by "Wym") was playing tennis as a teenager. Looked up in the sun for a lob. Hit him in the eye. he lost about 20% of the vision in that eye. Happened over 50 years ago -today might have been a different story. The fact is, ND was not trying to hit the person
