I know Heather quite well so it’s sad to see that she was struck by a drunk driver while coming home from a friend’s house in South Africa. We wish you the speediest and most complete recovery Fergie! For info on how to help her out financially, see the bottom of this post.

As reported on www.surfingsouthafrica: Reigning International Surfing Association (ISA) world masters surfing champion Heather “Fergie” Clark has been injured in a car accident, her family said in a statement on Friday.

“She was hit so hard her car is in two pieces, at this stage we are not sure the full extent of her injuries or how it will impact on her surfing career in the long term,” Clark’s mother Dawn Clark said on Friday.

Clark was driving home from a friend’s house in Port Shepstone, KwaZulu-Natal, on Thursday night when an allegedly drunk driver collided with her vehicle.

“[She] is currently undergoing numerous scans and X-rays [at] the Hibiscus Private Hospital, in Port Shepstone, to determine the degree of her injuries.
