Suitcase Blamed for Parnevik’s Slow Start

John Daly isn’t the only PGA Tour player who recently sustained a freak injury. (Daly injured himself when he stopped his backswing because of a camera click from a misguided fan.)

A suitcase broke Jesper Parnevik’s finger. Really. And the injury has hampered the Swede’s golf game.

Parnevik broke the middle finger on his left hand when he tripped over a piece of luggage in his hotel room during the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic in January.

Jesper is still trying to regain his form. This year Parnevik has played 8 events and made 4 cuts, with no top-25 finishes. He tied for 48th at the PODS Championship this past weekend.
