SUNRISE, Fla. — Erik Karlsson is lucky he’s blessed with great speed.
It may have come in pretty handy Saturday at the Medalist Golf Club in nearby Jupiter, Fla.
The Senators captain teed it up with Swedish PGA Tour legend Jesper Parnevik and former Ottawa captain Daniel Alfredsson for a friendly round on the club’s off-day, but they got way too close for comfort to an alligator when they were trying to take pictures of one a pond.
In a video posted on Parnevik’s Twitter account late Saturday, Karlsson jumps in the air when the alligator moves while he’s posing for a photo.
