Peter Crouch begs fans not to share hilarious footage of England cult hero playing different sport
Peter Crouch has gone from scissor-kicks to in the sticks after a video has surfaced of the former striker trying his hand at golf. Six years on after calling time on his career, the former England international has plenty of time to get himself out on the golf course. Crouch’s drive didn’t go to plan in front of many onlookersTikTok: @bengummery1 He topped his shot, with the ball bouncing into the trees next to himTikTok: @bengummery1 But judging from a TikTok video that has gone viral, the 44-year-old still needs to practice on his swing. A self-confessed avid golfer, the ex-Liverpool centre-forward could be seen standing over his ball on the tee box with his driver in hand. As he went through his practice shot, an onlooker from the clubhouse could be heard saying: “Yeah, he’s a golfer, you can tell, can’t you?” To which friend simply stated: “No, he’s definitely a footballer.” And his wise words proved to be correct, as just seconds later, he left a group of spectators watching on in tears of laughter. As he swung down and made contact, Crouch unfortunately topped the ball, sending it bouncing and into the trees just a few yards to his left. The 2006 FA Cup winner – a scorer of memorable acrobatic goals from his career – could then be seen throwing his arms up in the air in a sign of frustration. We’ve all been there. But that didn’t stop those watching from the clubhouse from being sympathetic, with the video ending with the group failing to contain their laughter. The clip has found it’s way onto X and onto Crouch’s feed, with the former Tottenham Hotspur man jokingly urging his one million followers to not give it any attention. https://x.com/FBAwayDaysThose watching from the clubhouse were reduced to fits of laughter[/caption] Crouch looked in total disbelief after getting his tee shot horribly wrongTikTok: @bengummery1 He said: “Can everyone not share this pls. Kind regards.” Needless to say, his adoring fans were quick to laugh at Crouch’s expense, as one X user posted: “Surprisingly bad touch for a big man.” Another joked: “It’s great that you can laugh at yourself. Mind you, so is everybody else.” A third quipped: “He’s big! He’s red! He should try bowls instead!” Even Arsenal fan and broadcaster Piers Morgan joined in on the banter, as he simply left three laughing face emojis in the comment section. This person then said: “It gets funnier the more you watch it.” View Tweet: https://t.co/n3i8AnOJR4 Crouch is no stranger in having a laugh at himself after making good on his promise by performing his iconic robot dance during a charity match at Anfield in March. And he left Aaron Ramsdale and Joe Cole in stitches after he issued a cheeky response to being named the ‘Sexiest Football Pundit’ in December.
