AVONDALE, La. — When you come down south to play some golf, you better expect to see some dinosaur-like creatures. It’s tough not to think of Happy Gilmore when an alligator shows up at a PGA Tour event.
Anyway, some Tour players handle the situation better than others. If you remember, Cody Gribble gave a gator a little love tap to get him out of the way.
And Rory McIlroy couldn’t get far enough away.
Saturday at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Callum Tarren didn’t see the gator at first, but once he did, he went into panic mode.
Can’t poke fun at him though, we’d all (apart from the crazies) do the same thing.
Not your typical hazard 🐊

And if that wasn’t enough, another gator held up play as he made his way back home. Excuse me, Keegan.
