Thanks to an Adam Schefter injury report on fellow ESPN reporter Michelle Beisner-Buck, her husband Joe Buck decided to take to X (formerly Twitter) to break down how he accidentally broke his wife’s ankle with a golf shot.
Joe revealed that he and Beisner-Buck were in Mexico back in July and decided to play golf. She ended up doing a headstand near the tee box on the course for good luck, and when he teed off, she did a split.
You can guess what happened next. He hit a drive into her ankle and “shattered it,” per Joe. There was “severe” nerve damage, too.
She got surgery, but didn’t blame him. Watch them retell the tale:
Here’s the truth @AdamSchefter the whole truth and nothing but the guilt-ridden brutal truth! My wife is one amazing, tough woman. And she has not for one second pinned this on me. Or added to my mental load. While I have. Fluke stuff. Probably lucky it wasn’t worse! pic.twitter.com/1SCEhJv3t7
