Fox Sports in Australia who are televising the Masters this year show last years final rounds. I just can’t watch the 96 year. I was there and it still rips my heart out watching the Shark lose to Faldo. Was an idol growing up. He was never the same after that.

Yep. Can still remember every painful moment from that day. A devastating day for everyone who followed him. Respectfully disagree that he was never the same though. His 93 Open win (via one of the greatest ever final rounds in a Major) was so dominant and he stared down nemesis Faldo in the process. He was peak Shark that day.

@shaggs23 Could have and possibly should have won 4 , Norman in theory should have won 8 majors.

@shaggs23 At the time he displayed wonderful sportsmanship. As an Aussie, it was painful to watch him lose. Now I don’t give a shit.

@shaggs23 @SharkGregNorman shouldn’t be defined by a single moment or a single tournament. He finished runner-up... but it was his grace in defeat that truly defined him. The way he embraced @Sir_NickFaldo & congratulated him said more about his character than any Green Jacket ever could!

@shaggs23 Then he had another red hot go in '99 often forgotten...

@shaggs23 It’s agonising knowing he was close more than once and didn’t win one I’d guts he was a hero to most aussie golfers over 40yrs old They’re hard to watch

@shaggs23 Yep, I still have unresolved issues. I can’t even do 1986! Thank god, Fox footy is just a few clicks away!

@shaggs23 I’m sure the cash sportswashing for MBS makes it feel better

@shaggs23 Savage for us Aussies
