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.

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.

"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.
