Peter Crouch has jokingly called for fans to stop sharing a video of a rather embarrassing moment that occurred on the golf course.
A group of men were enjoying a drink by the hole as Crouch lined up his tee shot.
They didn't seem to know who it was, but concluded that it was a footballer.
And any suggestion that he was a golfer vanished as the former England star proceeded to flop the ball straight into the trees on the left.
The men broke into laughter after watching the mis-hit, and unfortunately for Crouc, one of them got it all on camera.
The clip quickly did the rounds on social media, garnering over three million views on X.
And Crouch then shared it himself, writing: Can eanyonenot share this, pls. Kind regards.'
His tongue-in-cheek post racked up 55,000 likes in 24 hours as fans showed their appreciation for his good humour.
The ex-striker has a reputation for being one of the game's great characters, and he has continued to entertain since hanging up his boots.
Crouch scored 108 Premier League goals and played for the likes of Liverpool and Tottenham.
