This move was “wheely” low.

“Wheel of Fortune” Host Pat Sajak has once again come under scrutiny after mocking a contestant’s high-pitched scream when she won $10,000 Friday during the game show, reports The Sun.

The Force was with Kimberly Laflamme midway through the “Star Wars”-themed show she began racking up hundreds of dollars by guessing correct letters while attempting to solve the “Escape room with a view” puzzle.

Luck smiled upon the Arizona resident on her third turn when the wheel landed on the coveted $10,000 marker.

Momentarily forgetting to look at the dollar amount, Laflamme asked Vanna White, 66, if there was an “M” in the puzzle which White obligingly turned over.

Sajak, 76, then reminded the woman that she should look down at the wheel.

“You have $3,900 … almost $5,000, but again, [it] could be $10,000,”  said Sajak pointedly.

It was then Laflamme let loose a hair-raising shriek after realizing the amount she had just won.

The game show host, instead of joining in the celebration of the big win, appeared to be caught off-guard by the noise.

“Wow, you don’t play a lot of poker, do you,” chided Sajak.

The Post reached out to Sajak for comment.

Sadly, Laflamme’s lucky break had a Death Star-level explosion after she went bankrupt on her next turn.

Despite not getting to the show’s bonus round, Laflamme went home with $4,500 after managing to recover after her bankruptcy.

The Arizona native is not the first competitor that Sajak has been rude or snide to.

Last week, the host slammed a contestant and her granddaughter after the pair failed to guess the right answer three times

“Why are you bothering,” berated Sajak before asking other contestants to ring in with their answers.

Earlier this month, Sajak told a fan-favorite contestant “don’t ever do it again,” after the 22-year-old grabbed the envelope in the game show’s bonus round.

Though Sajak did admit that he understood why the college student went for the envelope stating that in previous years, the contest would hand over the clue.

In several episodes, the aging host has displayed bizarre behavior such as putting a contestant in a chokeholdclaiming he hides in letter-turner Vanna White’s gardenasked a contestant to remove his shirt and tugged on a contestant’s beard.
