This six-foot python is the PGA Tour's newest terrifying hazard
Golf is a challenging sport on its own, but it's apparently even more difficult in Malaysia, where the course hazards include sand traps, ponds and extremely large snakes.
The PGA Tour is set up in Malaysia for the CIMB Classic this week. Round two of the event had an unexpected guest as a six-foot python slithered its way onto one of the greens on the course.
Although pythons aren't typically the most dangerous threats to humans, it's still quite unsettling to see a snake that large make its way towards the general public. Fortunately, four brave souls came together to wrangle the snake and (presumably) bring him somewhere where he's less apt to make athletes soil themselves.
YIKES! ?
