Augusta National once raised the drawbridge after an open invitation to attack its defences. One player who managed to get under par was Greg Norman.
Norman’s Strong Showing
Norman put on a display of real class. His performance over the last six holes left his pursuers floundering. He not only retained the lead but extended it from four shots to six, with Nick Faldo in second place.
The Challenge of Closing Out Majors
Even the Great White Shark could hardly contrive to let this one slip from his jaws.
The Aussie’s record is mixed when leading Majors into the final round.
- Six times he has gone to bed with the third round lead (once tied).
- He only managed to win one of those, the 1986 British Open.
