Born Gregory John Norman on February 10, 1955, in Mount Isa, Queensland, Australia, he initially played rugby and cricket before his mother, Toini Norman, introduced him to golf at age 15. Within approximately 18 months, Norman rapidly progressed from a 27 handicap to a scratch handicap. He turned professional in March 1975, beginning his career as an assistant professional at Beverley Park Golf Club in Sydney and later at Royal Queensland Golf Club. His first four-round professional victory was at the 1976 West Lakes Classic, where he secured a five-stroke win. The following year, he joined the European Tour, achieving his first European event victory at the Martini International in Scotland. Norman’s early career also included significant wins like the 1980 French Open, where he won by ten strokes, and his first of five Australian Open titles the same year. By 1982, he was the leading money winner on the European Tour.
Norman joined the U.S. PGA Tour in 1983, earning his maiden PGA Tour victory at the 1984 Kemper Open. He became widely recognized after a dramatic 45-foot putt at the 1984 U.S. Open forced a playoff. In 1986, Norman experienced the ‘Norman Slam,’ leading all four major championships after 54 holes. He secured his first major, The Open Championship, that year with a final-round 69, known for his second-round 63, which tied the record for the lowest-ever round in the tournament. He went on to win a second Open Championship in 1993. Throughout his career, Norman spent 331 weeks as the world number one golfer, achieving 88 professional tournament victories, including 20 PGA Tour wins. His aggressive playing style earned him the nickname “The Great White Shark.”
Beyond golf, Norman founded the Greg Norman Company in 1993, originally Great White Shark Enterprises, which diversified into apparel, interior design, real estate, wine production, and golf course design. Notable business ventures include Greg Norman Golf Course Design, developing over 100 courses globally, and Greg Norman Estates, a successful wine brand. He also served as CEO of LIV Golf Investments from 2021 to 2025. Norman is actively involved in philanthropy, notably through the QBE Shootout, which benefits the CureSearch for Children’s Cancer fund, and the Greg Norman Golf Foundation, providing golf instruction and support to various groups.
