Greg Norman - Other Ventures

Other Ventures

Norman's hobbies include offshore game fishing. He has owned a succession of increasingly large and luxurious boats (though his latest, called Aussie Rules, after the sport Australian rules football, may best be described as a small ship) for the purpose. He even described his "ugly" 1993 PGA Championship loss "in fishing terms, this was a mackerel in the moonlight—shining one minute, smelly the next." He became a wine lover in the 1970s while playing at tournaments in Europe. Based in Hobe Sound, Florida, he typically plays only one or two tournaments per year in his homeland of Australia.
