Watch: Dustin Johnson covers and runs after Viktor Hovland’s errant approach at Valspar

When you hear, “FORE!” and you know a ball is headed in your direction, you cover your head and move out of the way. Of course, you could be moving into the direction of the ball – you have no idea where exactly it’s headed, but flight instinct takes over.

Dustin Johnson didn’t know where Viktor Hovland’s ball was headed as Johnson stood on the 12^th tee box – his third hole of the opening round of the Valspar Championship – but DJ heard “FORE!” and he took precaution.

Fortunately for Johnson, Hovland’s errant approach shot on the par-5 11^th didn’t strike anyone. Hovland made par at No. 11 as did Johnson on No. 12. No harm, no foul. It was also a proper display of safety on both sides, from Hovland’s yell to Johnson’s reaction.
