The players at first didn't notice the alligator, but once they were alerted by a photographer, they got in their carts and took off.

A representative for The Kiawah Island Club told ABC News that gators often walk onto the courses before retreating back to the ponds.

Kiawah Island, located about 25 miles southwest of Charleston, is known for its beaches and acclaimed golf courses.
