"The Carlton Dance" Hits The Golf World [VIDEO]

By: Sara

Poor Alfonso Ribeiro will only ever be known as the guy who played Carlton on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air". But a recent stint on "Dancing With The Stars" put Alfonso back in the public eye, and gave him the juice to be invited as a celebrity player in the annual American Century Championship. So while you were watching "The Open", you may have missed the moment when things got interesting in Lake Tahoe.

Ribeiro was struggling all tournament long and then missed the green on the 17th hole. He looked around for someone to cheer him up and out popped fellow celeb golfer Justin Timberlake. Timberlake knew immediately how to turn that frown upside down and encouraged Alfonso to break out "The Carlton Dance". It is impossible to be sad when swinging your hips and snapping your fingers to the Tom Jones tune playing in your head.
