Court of Appeal acknowledges the withdrawal of an appeal by a spectator who was injured by a golf ball at an amateur championship, after the parties reached a settlement, where the original High Court decision had dismissed the spectator's claim against the golf club, the golfing union, and the player; and the Court vacates all High Court costs orders and makes no order as to costs in the Court of Appeal.
