PGA Tour star golfer Billy Horschel was seen recently shooing a gator off a Florida golf course with his club as it tried to approach him during his round.

"The majority of the time, they’re fine. I grew up with my dad grabbing their tail when they’re on the side of the bank and shooing them back in the water. I never touched a tail with my hand but I’ve done it with a club.

Horschel played his college golf for the Florida Gators, so he knows plenty about the wildlife that gets seen on courses in the Sunshine State — including, yes, alligators.
