MAP407 Intl Pro Am
SHOT 8/9/2006 - Australian golfer Greg Norman flashes a smile to the gallery in his trademark hat on the 18th green during The International's Pro-Am Tournament Wednesday August 9, 2006 at Castle Pines Golf Club. The International begins Thursday and continues through Sunday at Castle Pines Golf Club. Norman won the event back in 1989. Gregory John Norman AM (born February 10, 1955) is an entrepreneur and Australian professional golfer who spent 331 weeks as the world's number one ranked golfer in the 1980s and 1990s. He is nicknamed "The Great White Shark", or simply, "The Shark", a reference to the sharks inhabiting Australian waters as well as Norman's size and blond locks. Norman won The Open Championship twice, in 1986 and 1993, and also won The Players Championship in 1994 in record-setting fashion (averaging 68.81 per round for the year). Despite his huge success on the U.S. PGA Tour and his many wins around the world, Norman will be forever regarded as an underachiever (given his talents), a characterization fueled by his myriad near-misses in The Masters, the U.S. Open, and the PGA Championship..(MARC PISCOTTY/ © 2006)
