Joe Buck’s wife Michelle Beisner-Buck gets surgery after he drives golf ball into her

Michelle Beisner-Buck is on the IL after a golf mishap involving her husband, Joe Buck.

The couple’s ESPN colleague, Adam Schefter, broke the news Wednesday that Beisner-Buck underwent surgery for a fractured ankle after her husband “accidentally drove a golf ball into it.”

“Getting ready to roll back,” Beisner-Buck texted Schefter.

Beisner-Buck has been an NFL features reporter for ESPN since 2014 and works on “Monday Night Countdown.”

She is a former Broncos cheerleader.

Buck joined ESPN as the voice of “Monday Night Football” in 2022, alongside color commentator Troy Aikman, who was his longtime partner at Fox Sports.

The couple wed in 2014, and have twin sons, Blake and Wyatt, who were born in 2018.

Buck has two daughters, Trudy and Natalie, from a previous marriage.

He cited his wife as one of the reasons he joined ESPN — so they could spend more time together during football season after spending a number of falls mostly apart.

“It dawned on us that we’re actually gonna have no time apart. I don’t know what this is going to do for my marriage and our relationship, but we’ll just have to roll the dice and hope that it makes it stronger — instead of ending it,” Buck deadpanned in an interview in 2022.

This is the second injury to an ESPN colleague that Schefter has broken in recent weeks, as he was also the first to relay the news that NFL reporter Field Yates suffered a shoulder injury in August.

“While engaging in an activity to determine the draft order in his fantasy football league at @espnfantasy Ultimate Draft Weekend in the Bahamas, Yates dislocated his shoulder, per sources,” Schefter wrote on X.

“The injury resulted in a brief hospitalization, but Yates now has been discharged, and is aiming to be ready for opening day.”
