(Reuters) - Australian Jeffrey Guan said he would continue to pursue his dream of playing on golf's biggest tours despite permanently losing sight in his left eye after being hit in the face by a ball last month during a tournament.

The 20-year-old suffered fractures to his left cheekbone and eye socket after being hit during a Pro-Am tournament in September. He has since had two surgeries and will not be able to play for at least six months.
