I immediately felt light headed as soon as I jumped into a bunker to see where my golf ball had landed. It passed quickly, so I brushed it off as nothing and kept playing. A few holes later, I put my ball down and had a good whack at it, but then instantly felt dizzy again. It was worse than before – a lot more intense – so I sat down in the golf buggy with my uncle because I felt too woozy.
