(Reuters) -American Vince Whaley had a particularly nerve-wracking encounter with a big-toothed onlooker at the Sanderson Farms Championship on Sunday, as he was forced to play a shot under the watchful gaze of a lurking alligator.
Whaley rolled up his trousers and waded into ankle-deep water after a wayward shot during the final round of the tournament, only to discover he had some unwanted company.
