Manchester United star Scott McTominay laughed off an 'awkward' moment after a golf ball hit his girlfriend while watching Rory McIlroy.
McTominay and his partner Cam Reading have jetted off to the United Arab Emirates to watch the Dubai Desert Classic golf tournament.

The United star was a special guest as he and his plus-one were sat in some of the best seats available at the Emirates Golf Club.
But they got more than they bargained for when a stray ball sailed straight into Cam's back.
No damage was done, though, and the couple laughed it off with a post later shared on social media site Instagram.
The post had the caption: "Well this is awkward..."
A clip made its way onto the DP World Tour Instagram page with McTominay saying: "We're going to have to get out of the way here. This is not good.
Cam said: "We were just sat here having a nice little conversation and then suddenly a bang happened over there and it [the ball] just bounced over and hit my back and then landed underneath my bum."
McTominay replied: "You can't actually write the script for that."
Cam then joked she would try sell it on eBay if she could get it signed after being told she could keep the ball.

She added: "It's very lucky though.
"First tournament, first golf tournament and I've been hit by a ball. It's great."
McTominay is currently on a break from football duties with the United on a winter break.
The Dubai Desert Classic brought some of the best players from around the world to the Middle East, including McIlroy.
The Northern Irishman won the tournament for the fourth time in his career on Sunday, finishing a point below Polish star Adrian Meronk.
American Cameron Young made up the top three at the tournament, which split a £6.5million purse.
