  • Greg Norman is perhaps the most talented golfer of all time, IMO. I believe he started playing golf at 16 or 17 and turned professional after only 2 years. That's what you call talent. So what if he choked a few times. He was in the position to win many majors and just didn't perform well on the last day. Big deal.

  • Agreed that Tiger may be the best closer ever, although that's tempered greatly by the level of player he's had to face (nothing like Nicklaus had, for instance).

    As for "should have won," again, what goes into defining that? If he goes into a playoff and a guy holes out a ridiculous shot, is it his fault that he "didn't win" what he "should have won"? Same story--you're ascribing way too much control to a golfer's own will. That's how fans like to think of it, I guess.

  • You could learn something from Greg's routines before his actual swing. Do you see how he does a practise swing then proceeds to the ball and apparently sets the ball on the tee again because his waggle drops it from the tee (or something like that). Then he places the ball again on the tee, steps back to (instead of whacking it straight away), focus for a few seconds on what kind of a shot he is going to perform and then off goes the swing with a few waggles. Golf ain't just hitting the ball.

  • did kulacz pump it by him?

  • omg, i went to this on the thursday morning to watch greg play and it rained so much it was hardly fair to the players who started early since the afternoon was almost perfect weather conditions

  • Don't you own any video editing software?? I was so sick of waiting for him to hit the ball that I forgot to watch the swing!!!

  • Get a life fella

  • okay... You're obviously quite the player if you shot those scores. So you know what it takes. But saying biggest "choker" of all time to a person who inspired so many in your country seems quite harsh to me. Anyhow... you're entitled to your opinion. I live by the Western Open course in Chicago, so if you're looking for a good game, let me know!! I play to about a 5 as well...

    Take Care,

    GOd Bless

  • I heartily agree with your comments about Norman's effect on Australian golf, shwnkumar. He did a lot for the sport in my country and inspired a lot of youngsters to take up the game.

    But he is still the biggest choker of all time.

    Oh, by the way, I once shot a 77 at Ivanhoe Public Golf course in Melbourne and also a 78 at Albert Park golf course. But that was a long time ago.

    Cheers!

  • Just listening to ElliotsFather pisses me off!!! I bet you've never broken 100 in your life, and yet you sit on your butt and "monday morning quarterback" everybody else who tries their ass off to win a tourament. Why don't you achieve something first, and then criticize others. Greg Norman was one of the hardest workers out there, and set a gold standard for so many young players. If you love Adam Scott, Aaron Baddeley, and Geoff Ogilvy, thank the Great White Shark... That's all I've got to say
