Best known for playing Draco Malfoy in the fantasy franchise, Tom Felton experienced the medical incident on Thursday while participating in a golf tournament at Whistling Straits in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, ahead of the Ryder Cup, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Tom was on the 18th hole when he went down. He was helped to his feet, placed on a stretcher, and driven away in a golf cart.
The actor was representing Europe in the celebrity match, which is held the day before the US and Europe start the Ryder Cup.
This certainly was not the first golf tournament Tom has been a part of. Earlier this month, he was spotted in England participating in the Pro-Am event prior to The BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth Golf Club. He also headed to Hawaii in January 2020 where he showed off his golf skills at the Sony Open.
Apart from his golfing stints, Tom will also be seen in the upcoming drama 'Lead Heads' with Rupert Everett.
