Harry Potter actor Tom Felton has offered a health update after collapsing during a celebrity golf match at the Ryder Cup in Wisconsin last week.
The 34-year-old actor was competing for Europe in the six-a-side Ryder Cup Celebrity Match in Wisconsin when he collapsed on the 18th hole.
He was taken off the course in a stretcher, and transported to seek further medical attention. At the time, Ryder cup organizers re;eased a statement confirming that Felton experienced “a medical incident”, but no further information was provided.
“In today’s Ryder Cup Celebrity Match, actor and musician Tom Felton experienced a medical incident on the course while participating for Europe,” the PGA of America said in a statement. “He was transported to a local hospital for treatment. No further details are available.”
Tom Felton has since taken to Twitter to share a health update, assuring followers that he was “on the mend” following the “scary episode.” He did not delve into the specifics surrounding the collapse.
“Hello everyone, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the lovely well wishes as of recent,” Felton said in a video.
“Bit of a scary episode, really — but on the mend, people have been taking really good care of me. So thank you very much to anyone who has sent messages of get well soon because I am on the mend, officially.”
