Now, the golf enthusiast is planning to sue the organizers after doctors have told her that she will never be able to use her eyes again.
Remande told AFP: "It happened so quickly that I did not feel any pain when I was touched. I did not feel that the ball hit my eye, and then I felt the blood flowing.
"Friday's scan confirmed a fracture of the right orbit and an eyeball explosion."
