Greg Norman, during a career of more than two decades, has appeared among the top-ranked golfers in the world. He has won 73 tournaments in his career and is the third highest money-earner in golfing history. In 1986 and 1993, Norman won the British Open, one of the four major championships of golf. His career has been successful by any standard, but golf fans know him best for the tournaments he did not win. Nine times Norman has finished second in major tournaments, the most times any golfer has been a runner-up. He says he hopes fans remember him as a great golfer and not as one of the unluckiest athletes in sports history.
