Read the full NTSB narrative

The pilot stated he had successfully completed two touch and go and a full stop landing to the same runway. On this particular landing, his flight control inputs caused a higher than normal flare and a hard, simultaneous touchdown of the nose and right main landing gear, collapsing the nose gear, and causing a runway strike of the right wingtip, the propeller spinner and propeller.

Quoted verbatim from the NTSB record.
