NBC Sports struggled to keep track of Tiger Woods’ car crashes over the weekend.
The network showed a photo of the athlete’s 2021 accident in their broadcast Saturday after his DUI arrest the previous day — and issued an awkward apology hours later.
“We want to take this time to make a correction,” Dan Hicks said on Saturday while covering the Houston Open.
“Before we came on the air today, our studio inadvertently showed the incorrect picture of the car crash Tiger Woods was in,” the journalist continued. “It was another previous car crash.
“It was not the correct one — the latest one that was yesterday,” he added. “We apologize for that and just want to straighten that out before we go any further.”
A spokesperson for NBC did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
On Saturday, NBC Sports viewers saw an image of Woods’ near-fatal accident in California in 2021 as Paul Burmeister reported on Friday’s Jupiter Island, Fla., crash.
Woods’ Genesis GV80 SUV flipped over multiple times in the 2021 incident, which occurred as the professional golfer sped nearly 85 mph in a 45 mph zone.
On Friday, his Land Rover SUV rolled over after clipping the trailer of a pressure cleaner truck Woods was attempting to pass.
Woods was arrested and charged with driving under the influence.
According to authorities, he showed “signs of impairment and refused a urinalysis test, leading to charges of DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test.”
Woods, whose breathalyzer test returned negative, was released Friday after eight hours in jail.
He was last arrested on suspicion of DUI in May 2017 when he fell asleep behind the wheel with his engine running.
At the time, Woods was found by cops on the side of the road with the driver’s side of his 2015 Mercedes-Benz damaged.
The 50-year-old pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of reckless driving in an October 2017 plea deal.
In a statement, Woods attributed his behavior to an “unexpected reaction” to prescribed Vicodin and Xanax.
He has yet to speak out on Friday’s rollover crash.
