Greg Norman Interview

Jessica Reynolds CEO of Overseaswithlove.com interviews Greg Norman, May 22, 2011 at restaurant Sixteen at the Trump International Hotel, Chicago.

Greg Norman was labeled the "Great White Shark" by a newspaper reporter during the 1981 Masters Tournament. Norman began as a scratch golfer, averaging par or better each time he played. For the next few years, he spent time working as an Australian PGA trainee, playing amateur and open tournaments throughout Australia before turning professional in 1976 - just six years after caddying for his mother. Norman has earned more than $1 million five times on the U.S. PGA Tour, including three Arnold Palmer Awards as the Tour's leading money winner in 1986, 1990, and 1995. He was also the first person in Tour history to surpass $10 million in career earnings. But his crowning achievements are British Open Championships in 1986 and 1993. In total, Norman has won 91 professional events around the world, including 20 U.S. PGA Tour titles. He has 29 top 10 finishes in Majors (Masters Tournament, U.S. Open, British Open, PGA Championship), or more than 38 percent of those he has entered. He has secured a spot in the World Golf Hall of Fame.
