Shank shot heard around the world: SC golfer's ball lands on alligator
OKATIE, S.C. (WPDE) — Every golfer has had their fair share of shots landing in all the wrong places but maybe not quite like David Ksieniewicz.
Ksieniewicz lives in Myrtle Beach and was golfing while visiting his daughter in Spring Island.
On the 12th hole, he hit a shot that landed near an alligator that was sunbathing.

His next shot he said he shanked it, the ball bounced a couple of times and landed right on the back of the alligator.
"The alligator started getting a little irritated and she started wandering off and she went into the water with the ball in her back. Needless to say, I didn't like the notoriety of the shank shot I would've rather had the notoriety of a hole in one," Ksieniewicz said.
He says his golf shot has gone so viral, he's even done interviews for British media outlets about it.
