WATCH: Safarova gets hit in head by rogue ball

Published Nov 30, 2017

In Arizona for some offseason training, Lucie Safarova took a break from her hitting session to teach a little girl. The good deed turned hilariously bad quickly when the girl accidentally launched the ball right at the Czech's head.

Safarova is in Phoenix to reunite with her Team Bucie partner Bethanie Mattek-Sands. Mattek-Sands is working hard to return to the tour from a knee injury.
