A GOLFER is suing a resort in Malaysia after a crocodile grabbed his leg and tried to drag him into a pond as he played the 7th hole, local media reported.

 

The 42-year-old company director, Terry Hong Kee Siong, needed 38 stitches in his left leg after managing to escape by thumping the five-metre reptile on the head at the A Famosa Golf Resort in the tourist town of Malacca, several papers said.

 

He is suing the resort for damages, saying that apart from physical injuries he suffered mental shock and anguish and has not hit a golf ball since the incident on January 22.

 

Hong told reporters he was looking for his ball after playing a shot when he stepped on what he thought was a piece of wood.

 

"It turned out to be a crocodile. It bit me," he said.
