ESPN reporter Michelle Beisner has been injured and been undergone surgery – courtesy of a golf shot from her husband Joe Buck.
ESPN announcer Buck hit an errant shot, and unfortunately his wife has been the one to suffer.

“(Beisner-Buck) underwent surgery today to repair nerve damage in her fractured ankle that occurred during a freak accident when her husband Joe accidentally drove a golf ball into it, per sources,” ESPN inside Adam Schefter wrote.
He also posted a picture of Beisner-Buck giving a thumbs up from a hospital bed.
Joe Buck actually called the US Open golf for Fox when it had the rights from 2015 to 2019.
It sounds like he might be a better caller than a player, going on this evidence.
In fairness to Buck, he didn’t shy away from the unfortunate incident.
Here’s the truth @AdamSchefter the whole truth and nothing but the guilt-ridden brutal truth!” Buck wrote.
“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!”
Buck revealed her wife did the splits at just the wrong moment.
“Freak accident,” Michelle said. “If you were having a competition you would never, ever be able to do it.
“It was like God or the universe just directed this ball right into my ankle bone.”
Joe admitted he still suffers from guilt over the unlikely incident.
“Needless to say, my guilt is off the charts,” he said.
“I still wake up in the middle of the night hearing that sound. And it makes me sick.”
