It’s not everyday you see an alligator on a golf course, but just as Norma Respess was entertaining family visiting from North Carolina at a Florida golf club on Thursday, she spotted one walk across the lawn.The alligator was carrying a big fish in its mouth as it was strolling through Seven Springs Golf and Country Club in Trinity.

Norma’s sister Phyllis was on the 10th hole when they noticed the gator. While Phyllis quickly took cover in a bunker, when her husband Nolan shouted “look behind you, look behind you!”, Norma instead took the opportunity to film the reptile.

“[It was] Just an amazing encounter that we will never forget”
