Peter Crouch begs ‘can everyone not share this’ as fan catches absolutely TERRIBLE golf shot on camera
PETER CROUCH has begged fans to stop sharing viral footage of his disastrous attempts at playing golf.
The former England striker took advantage of the sunny weather by hitting the fairways over the weekend.
Crouch, 44, hung up his boots in 2019 after a two-decade career.
But it doesn’t look like he’s been working hard on his swing over the past six years.
The 6ft7in striker is seen teeing off in the viral clip, with members watching on from the clubhouse.
One watching spectator is heard to say: “Yeah, he’s a golfer, you can tell, can’t you?”
A pal laughs in response: “No, he’s definitely a footballer.”
Crouch went on to prove the fan right by producing a shocker of a tee shot.
After a nervy practice swing, the former Stoke and Liverpool forward addressed the ball.
But he succeeded in only topping his drive off the tee, with the ball bouncing miserably into nearby trees.

A mortified Crouch captioned the footage: “Can everyone not share this pls[sic]. Kind regards.”
As expected, his pleas fell on deaf ears, with the clip viewed 4 million times in under 12 hours on X.
One fan laughed in response: “Stick to the miserable Tuesday nights in Stoke Crouchy. Leave the sunny days on the golf course, to those who know how to play.”
And a second pointed out: “You just shared it though?”
A third added: “The fact that you’ve shared this makes it 10x funnier. Never change crouchy.”
While a fourth joked: “He’s big! He’s red! He should try bowls instead!”
Crouch earned 42 caps for England across his career, netting 22 goals.
Since retiring, he’s launched a successful podcast alongside wife Abbey Clancy and has worked as a pundit for TNT Sports.
