A teenage groundskeeper has drowned in a golf course water hazard after driving a mower into it.

Greg Misodoulakis, 18, was riding a lawnmover at the Back Nine Club in Lakeville, in the US state of Massachusetts, when it plunged into the man-made water hazard, the Boston Globe reports.

The local district attorney's office said Mr Misodoulakis became trapped under the mower in about 1.5m of water on Friday morning local time.

He was pulled from the water about 20 minutes later and rescue workers performed CPR before transporting him to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.

"It appears to be an accidental drowning," a spokeswoman the Plymouth district attorney’s office, Bridget Norton Middleton, told the Boston Globe.

An autopsy will be performed to determine the cause of Mr Misodoulakis's death.
