FORE: Clip of Tiger Woods mistakenly included in campaign ad advocating for the death penalty

Republican Kris Kobach, the party's nominee for Kansas attorney general, released a campaign ad Thursday advocating the use of capital punishment for "cop killers" and "mass murderers," but mistakenly included a clip of pro-golfer Tiger Woods' 2017 DUI arrest in the ad's footage.

The ad, titled, "Just Intentional," slammed Kobach's opponent, Democrat Chris Mann, over what it said was his opposition to capital punishment, and, in addition to Woods, included footage of the Carr brothers, two convicted murderers currently on Kansas' death row.

Fox News Digital reached out to Kobach's campaign for comment and received an explanation from spokesperson Danedri Herbert.

"That was an ad agency error. We caught it and fixed it within minutes. What a happy accident that media is going to pick this up and expose Chris Mann as a soft-on-crime liberal Democrat who will let cop killers and mass murderers off easy for their heinous crimes," she said of the first version of the ad.

The new ad mentioned by Herbert replaced the portion that included Woods with footage of what appears to be a prison inmate.

A source with knowledge of the situation said that the footage in the ad was originally from a documentary about the Carr brothers. It wasn't immediately clear why footage of Woods' arrest was included in the documentary.

Fox News Digital also reached out to Woods for comment, but didn't receive a response.

Artemis II vs Apollo: Why this mission loops the moon but doesn't land

More than half a century after NASA’s final Apollo mission, astronauts prepared Wednesday to return to the moon, but this time, they will not land. Instead, four crew members aboard Artemis II will fly past the moon on a 10-day mission, traveling farther into space than any humans since the Apollo era. The mission is designed as a crewed lunar flyby, a critical test of NASA’s deep-space systems before attempting future landings, according to NASA. Launched aboard the Space Launch System rocket, the Orion spacecraft will first enter Earth's orbit before following a precise path known as a "free-return" trajectory. NASA BEGINS INFRASTRUCTURE OVERHAUL UNDER ISAACMAN AS TRUMP PUSHES AMBITIOUS SPACE EXPLORATION GOALS Scientists said the route uses the combined gravitational forces of Earth and the moon to carry the spacecraft around the far side of the moon and safely back home without requiring major course corrections.
