Um, drcar, that's exactly the problem ... the "facts" are all over the map!
It seems that some court cases result in no responsibility for the golfer, and other court cases result in damages being assessed to the golfer.

It's really a guess as to who is legally responsible. But morally, I don't think anyone feels comfortable breaking a window and running away.
