i'm surprised his swing looks this good, I havn't seen him swing a club in gosh, 5 or 6 years at least. It looks the same as it did!

What a great story this would be. Tiger who? Haha. Someone mentioned in a different thread how good he looked in the practice rounds and if there's one tournament Norman can compete in these days it would be this one. I don't think he can win but it's nice to see him playing well and a top 25 isn't out of the question.

Amazing. Norman did play in a Seniors major recently and was in contention, so he still has game, even though he never plays or practices and has had major surgery . . . it's hard to believe that he is outplaying most of the best players in the world. Just goes to show the game is mostly in the mind.

Keep in mind this is the first round. Seems to always be an example of one of greats from the past being in contention at some point in a major only to fall off.

Agree with you 100%. I met Norman a couple of years ago when I was working for his apparel company. Most focused dude I've ever met.

Totally agree. And it's not like Norman has ever started out well and had a bad weekend

But I would love to see him finish well.

It's great to see Greg Norman mixing it up with the boys.
He's still got game for a guy that keeps the schedule he does.
Stamina will be the test over the next 3 rounds...

Looks like this might be a great week to be an Aussie. Along with Norman, Scott and Allenby are looking in great form. I would love to see the Shark pull off the improbable which would thus allow him to play at Augusta again. Stranger things have happened (i.e. Ben Curtis 2003).

I'm definitely glad Norman played well, but why was there a seperate thread made when this could have been discussed in the British Open thread already made?

      I added to total today by hopping it in on the first hole for an eagle. A short par 4, I hit 4 wood to 110. With a little breeze in my face I hit a 50 degree gap wedge to 2 feet and watched it hop into the hole for an eagle 2!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 14 (September 18).  Morning practice, despite questionable weather (it's raining).   Worked on chipping at first, including run-ups with UW and PW;  I've noticed lately some of my near-GIRs are missing forward, with nothing but grass ahead of me, but 20-30 yards to the pin.  After a few misadventures putting those lately, I wanted to at least get a feeling for what a 30-yard chip shot that doesn't have the variance of my quarter lob wedge would feel like.  I still think "putt when you can putt" is right, but... I am less sure I have a 30 yard putt in me.  Range time also, of course, same routine as the past week or so (drill, 3-4 slow shots, etc).   Did not get to the putting green as it was starting to come down a bit more. Darn, it really is raining.  And I thought today would be a perfect day to play, seeing as how it's 9-18 and all.
