    A US news website wrongly substituted a rugby position in a headline to label Leicester Tigers hooker Tom Youngs a "prostitute".

    The unfortunate error was made by Insider Voice in a story about the player facing disciplinary action.

    Another mistake in the article saw 34-year-old Youngs's name switched to "the youth".

    It is not known how the wording blunders came about and the mistakes have yet to be corrected.

    A hooker in rugby is one of the forwards in a team, playing in the front row during a scrum.

        Hello! 👋

        Just don't let Insider Voice report on your rug-making activities. It could get awkward.
