A 15-year-old Thai girl died on Monday after lightning struck her during a junior golf tournament in Chachoengsao province. Her death has sparked a bitter controversy over why officials failed to halt play despite repeated lightning strikes.
Her family claims children continued competing as a violent thunderstorm approached the course on Sunday afternoon. Worse still, relatives allege no ambulance was stationed at the venue, delaying emergency treatment.
The promising young golfer suffered severe burns and cardiac arrest. Rescuers eventually restored her heartbeat after nearly an hour. However, she died the following morning, shortly after her father rushed back from Burma to say goodbye.
Teen golfer struck near the 11th hole as her mother says lightning warnings went ignored at course
Ayawarin Pradabyat, known as Nong Aya, was competing at a golf course in Bang Nam Priao district on Sunday, November 1. Lightning struck the teenager near the 11th hole at approximately 4 pm. A 31-year-old female caddie was also injured. At the time, Aya’s mother was waiting near the clubhouse, unaware that her daughter had been critically injured.
The competition was taking place along Ongkharak–Bang Nam Priao Road, in Moo 8, Don Ko Ka subdistrict. Young competitors and their caddies were scattered across different holes when the weather deteriorated.
Aya had already established herself as a successful junior golfer from Chonburi province. She had collected awards at several tournaments and represented her province in competitions. In addition, she was being considered as a reserve player for Chonburi’s provincial golf team.
Her mother, Natcha Pradabyat, 49, has accused tournament officials of failing to suspend play despite clear signs of danger. She said thunder and lightning were already occurring near the course while children continued their rounds. According to Natcha, the first lightning strike was heard at approximately 3 pm. It appeared to come from the left side of the course, near pine trees beside the competition area.
Officials halt junior tournament only after further lightning as mother discovers her daughter is missing
More lightning followed as the weather worsened. Yet officials had not announced a suspension, leaving the young golfers competing outdoors. Rain began falling, but play continued. Natcha said another particularly loud lightning strike was then heard from the opposite side of the course.
Soon afterwards, heavy rain swept across the venue. Only then, according to her account, did officials announce the suspension of the tournament.
Vehicles were dispatched to collect competitors and return them to the designated rest area. However, Aya was already missing from her playing group. Her mother became concerned when two golfers who had been competing alongside her daughter returned without her. Natcha immediately asked where Aya was. The other children reportedly told her that she was sleeping.
Initially, Natcha assumed her daughter had reached a shelter or was resting elsewhere at the course. Moments later, somebody informed her that a young golfer had been struck by lightning. She demanded to know who had been injured. The answer was devastating. The victim was her daughter. Natcha immediately sought help from tournament officials to reach the scene.
Rescuers restore teenager’s heartbeat after nearly an hour but she dies following overnight treatment
When she arrived, people were already attempting emergency first aid. Aya was critically injured, with severe redness and burns across her face and body. Her mother said the teenager was suffering convulsions before losing consciousness again.
Meanwhile, rescuers struggled to restore her heartbeat after the lightning strike caused cardiac arrest. According to Natcha, nearly an hour passed before emergency workers managed to revive her.
The teenager was subsequently transported to Bang Nam Priao Hospital. Doctors assessed her condition as critical and began emergency treatment. Despite the successful initial resuscitation, Aya remained in a life-threatening condition throughout Sunday night. Medical personnel repeatedly attempted to revive her as her condition deteriorated.
Furthermore, she required medication to maintain vital functions while doctors continued treatment. Her injuries remained severe, and her condition showed no sustained improvement.
Meanwhile, Aya’s father was working in Burma when the accident occurred. The family contacted him and arranged his urgent return to Thailand. He reached the hospital on Monday morning and was finally able to see his daughter. Shortly afterwards, the teenager died. Her family subsequently confirmed her death through the Facebook account Icezy Aya Ivy Pradabyat.
Father returns from Burma for final goodbye as family challenges tournament’s response to the storm
Her mother published a message describing the family’s decision to let her daughter go. “No parent would ever willingly let their child go. But if holding on means causing more pain to our beloved daughter, we have to let her go peacefully,” she wrote. “You fought so hard, my beloved Aya. Rest in peace, my darling.”
The family collected Aya’s body from Phutthasothon Hospital in Chachoengsao on Monday afternoon. Religious ceremonies were subsequently arranged at Darul Ibadah Mosque in Chonburi province.
By then, the circumstances surrounding the teenager’s death had raised serious questions about the tournament’s management. Particular attention centred on the failure to halt play and the reported absence of emergency transport.
Aya’s grandmother, Aphorn Pradabyat, 67, delivered another account of the conditions before the fatal strike. She claimed lightning had already struck twice before her granddaughter was injured. Nevertheless, tournament officials had not ordered the competitors to stop playing. According to Aphorn, Aya had been competing since approximately 11 am. She was playing alongside several other golfers and caddies when the thunderstorm developed.
Grandmother claims two lightning strikes preceded fatal blow and questions absence of an ambulance
The grandmother said the first two lightning strikes occurred during the afternoon. Despite these warnings, the competition continued without an official suspension. Aphorn questioned whether organisers had been attempting to finish the tournament quickly. However, she acknowledged that she did not know why play had continued. The third lightning strike occurred while Aya was near the 11th hole, leaving her critically injured.
The impact caused extensive burns along the teenager’s right side. Aphorn described injuries extending from Aya’s hair down her body, arms and legs. Her golf cap was also torn during the incident. The teenager was left unconscious and without a detectable heartbeat.
Emergency workers subsequently performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation until her heartbeat returned. Nevertheless, her condition remained critical throughout the night.
The grandmother also raised a separate allegation concerning the emergency response. She claimed no ambulance was stationed at the golf course when Aya was struck. As a result, the family faced a considerable wait before the injured teenager could be transported to hospital. Aphorn questioned why immediate emergency transport had not been available during a competition involving young golfers.
Family’s claims over delayed emergency transport and late suspension remain unanswered by organisers
The precise duration of that delay has not been established. Equally, the family’s account of the ambulance arrangements has not been independently verified. However, the allegation has intensified questions surrounding the organisation of Sunday’s competition. It has also drawn attention to the emergency resources available when the lightning strike occurred.
At the centre of the controversy is the timing of the decision to suspend play. Natcha maintains that thunder and lightning were already occurring near the course before officials acted. Her grandmother separately claims two strikes preceded the one that injured Aya. Both accounts place the fatal incident after earlier signs of the approaching storm.
However, the precise timing of each lightning strike has not been independently established. Nor has the official sequence of decisions leading to the suspension been confirmed. The available reports contain no detailed explanation from tournament organisers or golf course management. Consequently, the family’s allegations remain unanswered by those responsible for running the competition.
There is also no confirmed information about weather-monitoring equipment at the venue. It remains unclear whether officials had access to lightning detection systems or received warnings before the accident. Separately, the identity of the person responsible for ordering the suspension has not been established. No official explanation has been supplied concerning the timing of that decision.
Golf courses face particular lightning dangers as storms threaten players across exposed open ground
The incident has focused attention on established safety procedures governing outdoor sporting competitions during thunderstorms. Golf courses present particular difficulties because players are spread across extensive open areas.
Competitors may be hundreds of metres from permanent buildings when dangerous weather develops. In addition, trees, water features and exposed ground can increase the danger during electrical storms.
According to the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, lightning can strike several kilometres from the main rain clouds. Heavy rain does not need to reach a location before lightning becomes dangerous. Indeed, thunder itself indicates that lightning may be close enough to present a threat. Electrical currents can also travel through the ground following a nearby strike.
As a result, people can suffer serious injuries without being directly struck by lightning. Electrical currents may spread through nearby objects or the surrounding ground. Large trees and open shelters do not necessarily provide protection. Similarly, standing beneath a tree during a thunderstorm can expose people to electrical currents travelling through its trunk or roots.
Weather authorities recommend early suspension, rapid evacuation and properly protected shelters
The United States National Weather Service recommends that outdoor sporting organisers appoint personnel to monitor changing weather conditions. Its guidance also covers procedures for suspending competitions and evacuating participants when lightning threatens.
Such arrangements involve clear communication between tournament officials, competitors and emergency personnel. For golf competitions, warnings must reach players scattered across multiple holes.
Evacuation arrangements are especially relevant when participants are far from permanent buildings. Fully enclosed vehicles with hard roofs can provide protection from lightning.
By contrast, ordinary golf carts and open-sided shelters do not offer equivalent protection. Weather safety guidance also recommends waiting at least 30 minutes after the last thunder before resuming outdoor activities.
Emergency medical arrangements form another part of the dispute surrounding Sunday’s incident. The National Weather Service recommends that outdoor sporting venues establish emergency response procedures before competitions begin.
These include evacuation plans, communication systems and access to life-saving equipment. Automated external defibrillators can also be used alongside cardiopulmonary resuscitation when medically appropriate.
Emergency response guidance highlights CPR and defibrillators as caddie’s condition is unclear
Thailand’s emergency medical hotline, 1669, provides access to emergency assistance. Meanwhile, medical guidance from the United States Centres for Disease Control and Prevention addresses treatment following lightning strikes.
Victims do not retain an electrical charge after being struck. Therefore, rescuers can administer assistance without receiving an electrical shock from the victim, provided the surrounding area is safe.
Cardiac arrest is among the serious medical consequences of lightning exposure. Victims may require immediate CPR and defibrillation. In Aya’s case, rescuers performed resuscitation until her heartbeat returned. However, the teenager remained critically injured and required further emergency treatment. Her family said repeated attempts to revive her continued throughout Sunday night.
The second person injured was a 31-year-old female caddie. The supplied reports confirm her involvement but provide no further details about her subsequent condition. Likewise, there is no confirmed account of the medical personnel stationed at the course. The available information does not establish whether an operational defibrillator was present or whether emergency transport had been arranged beforehand.
Mother demands stronger safeguards as questions persist over suspension and ambulance arrangements
These gaps remain central to the family’s complaints. Natcha has questioned the failure to suspend play before the lightning strike. Her mother-in-law’s account raises further concerns about the availability of an ambulance. Yet the tournament committee has not provided a response in the available reporting addressing either allegation.
On Monday, Natcha called for golf courses and tournament organisers to introduce stronger safety procedures. She specifically requested preventive measures and arrangements allowing emergency personnel to respond quickly when competitors were injured. Her appeal followed the loss of a daughter who had already achieved success in junior golf.
“May Aya’s case be the first and last of its kind involving a junior golfer,” she wrote on Facebook. “I urge every golf course and tournament organiser to have proper measures in place to prevent such incidents and respond as quickly as possible when emergencies occur. No one should have to suffer a loss like this again.”
Aya had been competing since late morning when the storm approached on Sunday. By approximately 3 pm, according to her mother, lightning was already occurring near the course. Nevertheless, the competition continued. Around 4 pm, the teenager was struck near the 11th hole, suffering catastrophic injuries.
The family’s account indicates that officials announced the suspension only after further lightning and heavy rain. Vehicles were then sent to retrieve competitors. However, Aya’s playing partners returned without her, prompting her mother to search for the missing teenager. Only afterwards did Natcha learn that her daughter was the golfer struck by lightning.
Family recounts fatal strike and overnight fight for life while tournament organisers remain silent
The emergency response that followed restored Aya’s heartbeat after a prolonged period of cardiac arrest. She was transferred to hospital, where doctors continued treatment throughout the night. Meanwhile, her father travelled back from Burma after learning of the accident. He arrived on Monday morning and saw his daughter before she died.
The family’s allegations concern two separate decisions: the continuation of play and the arrangements for emergency treatment. Neither has been independently resolved in the supplied material. There is no established finding that tournament officials breached regulations or acted negligently. Equally, no detailed response from the organisers has been provided explaining their decisions.
The exact weather conditions, timing of the suspension and availability of emergency resources remain unconfirmed. Those details are central to establishing what happened before and after the fatal strike. For now, the family’s account stands as the principal description of the tournament’s final minutes.
Aya was 15, an award-winning junior golfer with ambitions to progress further in provincial competition. On Sunday, she was competing alongside other children when lightning struck the course.
By Monday morning, she was dead. Her family has accused officials of failing to stop play despite repeated lightning strikes. Meanwhile, the tournament organisers have yet to explain, in the available reporting, why the competition continued as the storm approached.

周一,一名15岁的泰国女孩在北柳府参加青少年高尔夫球锦标赛时被闪电击中身亡。她的死引发了激烈的争议,人们质疑为何赛事官员在多次雷击后仍未叫停比赛。
她的家人称,周日下午,一场强雷暴逼近赛道,孩子们仍在继续比赛。更糟糕的是,亲属们声称现场没有配备救护车,导致紧急救治延误。
这位前途无量的年轻高尔夫球手遭遇严重烧伤和心脏骤停。救援人员经过近一个小时的抢救,最终恢复了她的心跳。然而,第二天早上,在她父亲从缅甸赶来见她最后一面后不久,她便去世了。
一名十几岁的高尔夫球手在第11号洞附近被闪电击中,她的母亲称球场方面忽视了雷电预警。
11月1日星期日,绰号“农阿雅”的阿雅瓦琳·普拉达比亚特在邦南普里奥县的一个高尔夫球场参加比赛。下午4点左右,闪电击中了这位少女,当时她正位于11号洞附近。一名31岁的女球童也受了伤。当时,阿雅的母亲正在俱乐部会所附近等候,并不知道女儿已经身受重伤。
比赛在东哥卡区8号村的翁卡拉克-邦南坡路举行。天气恶化时,年轻的参赛选手和他们的球童分散在不同的球洞。
阿雅已是春武里府一位颇有名气的青少年高尔夫球手。她曾在多项赛事中获奖,并代表春武里府参加比赛。此外,她还被考虑作为春武里府高尔夫球队的替补队员。
她的母亲,49岁的娜查·普拉达比亚特(Natcha Pradabyat),指责赛事官员在危险迹象明显的情况下没有暂停比赛。她说,孩子们还在继续比赛时,球场附近已经出现雷电。据娜查描述,大约下午3点左右听到了第一声闪电。闪电似乎来自球场左侧,靠近比赛区域旁的松树林。
赛事官员在闪电再次来袭后暂停了青少年锦标赛,此时一位母亲发现女儿失踪。
随着天气恶化,闪电接踵而至。然而,赛事官员并未宣布暂停比赛,年轻的高尔夫球手们只能继续在户外比赛。雨开始下了,但比赛仍在继续。纳查说,随后他们听到球场另一侧传来一声格外响亮的闪电。
随后不久,暴雨倾盆而下。据她所述,直到那时,赛事官员才宣布暂停比赛。
工作人员派车接送参赛选手前往指定休息区。然而,阿雅却不见踪影。当两名与她同组的高尔夫球手返回时,阿雅的母亲娜查非常担心。娜查立即询问阿雅的下落。其他孩子告诉她,阿雅正在睡觉。
起初,娜查以为女儿已经找到了避难所,或者在球场的其他地方休息。片刻之后,有人告诉她,一位年轻的高尔夫球手被闪电击中了。她急切地想知道是谁受伤了。答案令人心碎。受伤的人正是她的女儿。娜查立即向赛事官员寻求帮助,以便赶到现场。
救援人员经过近一个小时的抢救,恢复了这名少女的心跳,但她在接受一夜治疗后还是不幸去世。
她赶到时,人们已经在进行紧急救治。阿雅伤势严重,面部和身体多处严重红肿和烧伤。她的母亲说,这名少女在再次失去意识前曾出现抽搐。
与此同时,救援人员竭尽全力抢救娜查,试图恢复她因雷击导致心脏骤停后的心跳。据娜查说,救援人员花了将近一个小时才最终将她救活。
随后,这名少女被送往邦南坡医院。医生评估其病情危重,立即展开紧急救治。尽管初步抢救成功,但阿雅在周日晚间仍处于生命垂危状态。随着病情恶化,医护人员多次尝试抢救。
此外,在医生继续治疗期间,她还需要服用药物来维持生命体征。她的伤势依然严重,病情没有持续好转。
与此同时,事故发生时,Aya的父亲正在缅甸工作。家人联系了他,并安排他紧急返回泰国。他于周一早上抵达医院,终于见到了女儿。不久之后,这位少女便去世了。她的家人随后通过Facebook账号Icezy Aya Ivy Pradabyat证实了她的死讯。
父亲从缅甸返回,与家人做最后的告别,家人质疑赛事对风暴的应对措施。
她的母亲发表了一篇声明,解释了家人决定让女儿安息的原因。“没有父母会心甘情愿地放手。但如果坚持下去会给我们挚爱的女儿带来更多痛苦,我们只能让她平静地离开,”她写道。“我亲爱的Aya,你战斗得那么顽强。安息吧,我的宝贝。”
周一下午,家属从北柳府佛陀梭通医院领回了Aya的遗体。随后,在春武里府的达鲁伊巴达清真寺举行了宗教仪式。
到那时,这名青少年死亡的种种情况已经引发了人们对赛事管理的严重质疑。尤其令人关注的是,赛事组织方未能及时中止比赛,以及据报道缺乏紧急医疗运输。
阿雅的祖母,67岁的阿蓬·普拉达比亚特,对致命雷击发生前的情况作了另一种描述。她声称,在她孙女受伤之前,闪电已经击中过两次。然而,赛事官员并没有命令参赛选手停止比赛。据阿蓬说,阿雅大约从上午11点开始比赛。雷暴来袭时,她正与其他几位高尔夫球手和球童一起打球。
祖母声称致命一击前曾遭两次雷击,并质疑为何救护车没有赶到。
祖母说,前两次雷击都发生在下午。尽管有这些警告,比赛却并未正式暂停,而是继续进行。阿普霍恩质疑组织者是否试图尽快结束比赛。不过,她也承认自己不知道比赛为何继续进行。第三次雷击发生在阿雅靠近11号洞的时候,导致她身受重伤。
撞击导致这名少女右侧大面积烧伤。阿普霍恩描述说,伤势从阿雅的头发一直延伸到她的身体、手臂和腿部。她的高尔夫球帽也在事故中被撕破。这名少女当时昏迷不醒,没有心跳。
急救人员随后对她进行了心肺复苏,直到她恢复心跳。然而,她当晚的情况仍然危急。
祖母还提出了另一项关于紧急救援的指控。她声称,阿雅被撞时,高尔夫球场上没有配备救护车。因此,阿雅的家人不得不等待很长时间才能将受伤的少女送往医院。阿蓬质疑,在青少年高尔夫球手参加比赛期间,为何没有立即提供紧急救援服务。
家属对紧急运输延误和停赛时间过晚提出的指控,组织方至今仍未作出回应。
延误的具体时长尚未确定。同样,家属对救护车安排的说法也未得到独立核实。然而,这一指控加剧了人们对周日比赛组织工作的质疑,同时也引发了人们对雷击发生时应急资源可用性的关注。
争议的焦点在于暂停比赛的决定时机。娜查坚称,在官员采取行动之前,球场附近就已经出现雷电。她的祖母则声称,在导致阿雅受伤的那次雷击之前,已经发生了两次雷击。两种说法都表明,这起致命事故发生在暴风雨来临前的早期迹象之后。
然而,每次雷击的具体时间尚未得到独立证实。导致赛事暂停的官方决策过程也未得到确认。现有报告并未包含赛事组织方或高尔夫球场管理层的详细解释。因此,赛事负责人仍未对该家庭的指控作出回应。
目前尚无关于场馆气象监测设备的确切信息。尚不清楚赛事官员是否曾使用过闪电探测系统或在事故发生前收到过预警。此外,下令暂停比赛的负责人身份尚未确定。官方也未就该决定的时机给出任何解释。
高尔夫球场面临着特殊的雷击危险,因为暴风雨会威胁到在开阔地带比赛的球员。
此次事件使人们更加关注雷雨天气下户外体育赛事的既定安全规程。高尔夫球场的情况尤为复杂,因为球员分散在广阔的开阔区域。
当恶劣天气来临时,参赛者可能距离永久性建筑物数百米。此外,树木、水体和裸露的地面也会增加雷暴天气下的危险性。
据美国国家海洋和大气管理局称,闪电可以发生在距离主要雨云数公里之外的地方。即使没有强降雨,闪电也可能造成危险。事实上,雷声本身就表明闪电可能就在附近,足以构成威胁。附近的闪电过后,电流也可以通过地面传播。
因此,即使没有被闪电直接击中,人们也可能遭受严重伤害。电流会通过附近的物体或周围的地面传播。高大的树木和开放式的遮蔽物并不一定能提供保护。同样,在雷雨天气站在树下也可能使人暴露于通过树干或树根传播的电流中。
气象部门建议尽早暂停活动,迅速疏散人员,并建立防护良好的避难场所。
美国国家气象局建议户外运动组织者安排人员监测天气变化。其指南还涵盖了在雷电威胁下暂停比赛和疏散参与者的程序。
此类安排要求赛事官员、参赛选手和应急人员之间保持清晰的沟通。对于高尔夫比赛而言,警报必须能够传达给分散在多个球洞的球员。
当参与者远离永久性建筑物时,疏散安排尤为重要。全封闭式硬顶车辆可以提供防雷保护。
相比之下,普通高尔夫球车和敞篷式遮阳棚无法提供同等的防护。天气安全指南还建议,在最后一次雷声过后至少等待30分钟再恢复户外活动。
紧急医疗安排是周日事件争议的另一个焦点。美国国家气象局建议户外体育场馆在比赛开始前制定应急响应程序。
这些措施包括疏散计划、通信系统和救生设备的获取途径。在医学条件允许的情况下,自动体外除颤器也可与心肺复苏术联合使用。
紧急救援指南强调应使用心肺复苏术和除颤器,因为球童的状况尚不明确。
泰国紧急医疗热线1669提供紧急援助服务。同时,美国疾病控制与预防中心发布的医疗指南也针对雷击后的治疗提供了指导。
受害者被电击后不会残留电荷。因此,只要周围环境安全,救援人员就可以在不触电的情况下对受害者进行救助。
心脏骤停是雷击造成的严重后果之一。受害者可能需要立即进行心肺复苏和除颤。在阿雅的案例中,救援人员进行了心肺复苏,直到她的心跳恢复。然而,这名少女仍然伤势严重,需要进一步的紧急治疗。她的家人表示,整个周日晚上,他们一直在尝试抢救她。
第二名受伤者是一名31岁的女球童。现有报告证实她卷入了事故,但没有提供关于她后续情况的更多细节。同样,也没有关于球场医务人员的确切信息。现有信息无法确定现场是否配备了可用的除颤器,也无法确定是否事先安排了紧急转运。
母亲要求加强保障措施,因为关于停职和救护车安排的问题仍然存在疑问。
这些漏洞仍然是家属投诉的核心。娜查质疑为何在雷击发生前没有暂停比赛。她婆婆的说法也引发了人们对救护车是否及时到位的进一步担忧。然而,在已公布的报道中,赛事组委会并未对这两项指控作出回应。
周一,娜查呼吁高尔夫球场和赛事组织者采取更严格的安全措施。她特别要求采取预防措施,并做好安排,以便在参赛者受伤时,急救人员能够迅速做出反应。此前,她的女儿在青少年高尔夫球赛中已取得不俗成绩,却不幸离世,娜查的呼吁正是源于女儿的意外身亡。
“希望阿雅的遭遇是首例也是最后一例涉及青少年高尔夫球手的类似事件,”她在脸书上写道。“我敦促所有高尔夫球场和赛事组织者采取适当措施,防止此类事件发生,并在紧急情况下迅速做出反应。任何人都不应该再遭受这样的损失。”
周日,暴风雨临近时,阿雅从上午晚些时候就开始比赛。据她母亲说,大约下午3点,球场附近已经出现闪电。尽管如此,比赛仍在继续。下午4点左右,这名少女在第11号洞附近被闪电击中,身受重伤。
据家人描述,官方是在再次出现雷电和暴雨后才宣布暂停比赛的。随后,工作人员派车去接参赛选手。然而,阿雅的同组球员都回来了,却不见她的身影,这促使她的母亲开始寻找失踪的女儿。直到后来,娜查才知道,被雷击中的女儿就是那位高尔夫球手。
家人讲述了致命袭击和彻夜搏斗的经历,而赛事组织者却保持沉默。
随后的紧急救援行动使阿雅在长时间心脏骤停后恢复了心跳。她被送往医院,医生们彻夜抢救。与此同时,她的父亲在得知事故后从缅甸赶回。他于周一早上抵达,并在女儿去世前见了她最后一面。
该家庭的指控涉及两项独立的决定:比赛是否继续进行以及紧急治疗的安排。在所提供的材料中,这两项决定均未得到独立解决。目前尚无确凿证据表明赛事官员违反了相关规定或存在疏忽行为。同样,赛事组织方也未提供任何详细的解释来说明其决定。
确切的天气状况、比赛暂停的时间以及应急资源的可用性仍未得到证实。这些细节对于查明致命袭击发生前后的情况至关重要。目前,家属的描述是赛事最后几分钟的主要记录。
阿雅年仅15岁,是一位屡获殊荣的青少年高尔夫球手,她渴望在省级比赛中取得更大的进步。周日,她与其他孩子一起比赛时,球场被闪电击中。
周一早上,她已经去世。她的家人指责赛事官员在多次雷击的情况下没有停止比赛。与此同时,在已公布的报道中,赛事组织者尚未解释为何在暴风雨临近时比赛仍继续进行。
