A 29-year-old man was hospitalized Thursday after collapsing along the 11th fairway at the U.S. Open.

The man fell to the ground near the spectator ropes as the group that included defending champion Graeme McDowell was about to play the hole at Congressional Country Club.

Assistant chief Scott Graham of the Montgomery County Fire Department said the man was in serious condition when he was taken by ambulance to nearby Suburban Hospital. A state trooper and local police officer assigned to provide security for the players performed CPR, and emergency workers brought in a defibrillator.

The man's name was not released.
