Re-cap of British Open and Predictions
0 Comments Published July 20th, 2008 in Golf News, greg norman, padraig harrington.
(Greg Norman says Good-bye to spectators while he uses the Time Machine for the 1st three rounds)
The amazing part about this week is that I actually did predict for “Padraig Harrington” 2 days before the tournament even started:
With British Open coming up, players like Padraig Harrington will be at advantage as they get to play the course more often than American players.
Congrats to Padraig and here’s a re-cap of British Open while I went Norman-crazy:
After Round 1 - Will Greg Norman Win It? - It’s a funny question but he did win it for the next 2 days after that.
After Round 2 - Go Greg Norman! - Wow, Greg IS playing good.
After Round 3 - Greg Norman Leads by 2! - Yeah, it’s not that easy to end up here.
After Round 4 - Greg Norman doesn’t win, but he’s got more to show! - Yeah, it seems like Greg Norman hopped on a time machine, he’s probably got 3-5 more majors left.
Well, those are my predicitions for Greg Norman, let’s see what happens.

Greg Norman “doesn’t” win the British Open, but watch out…
0 Comments Published July 20th, 2008 in A+Featured Golf News, Golf News, greg norman.Greg Norman doesn’t win the British Open today but it was a exciting 1st 3 rounds watching one of my golfing heroes battle it out at 53 years old.
What’s amazing is that Greg has just broke through his 15-year old dryspell of bad rounds. Heck, he is now officially playing the next year’s Masters.
If Greg Norman practiced before this week’s Open, he might have won by 5 or 10 shots. Even with Tiger Woods around, he probably would have won for sure.
Now, it’s up to Greg Norman to believe in himself again and win couple more majors before he really “retires” from major golf.
The same couldn’t be said about Rocco Mediate because it’s different.
Heck, Greg Norman is capable of breaking any of that old-age records. He just proved it to us.
Maybe his last round 77 wasn’t one of his best but I will be waiting for some more top finishes from the former #1 golfer of the world.
Congrats to the winner but I think Greg Norman probably “won” in his terms, outlasted every one of the best golfers of the world.
I look forward to couple more 54-hole leads on Sunday from Greg.

Greg Norman Leads British Open by 2 - About to Become the Oldest Player to win a Major!
1 Comment Published July 19th, 2008 in Golf News, Golf Predictions, greg norman.
Wow, what a tournament. I just finished watching the 3rd round of British Open as Greg Norman finishes up with a 2 shot lead and a 72 today.
What impressed me wasn’t the fact that he is 53 years old, it’s the fact that he’s able to turn back time to his 1986 Turnberry British Open championship.
I know if this was the Masters, Greg Norman wouldn’t have a good chance going into the final round but in this case, with Norman 2 shots ahead, it’s as good as in the bag.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Greg Norman eventually wins by 5-7 shots tomorrow. He might be old but he’s still more in shape than most 30 year olds. Plus, he knows how to win a British Open.
Well, I hope I am not wrong tomorrow and let’s see one of our favorite golfers win one of his last majors tomorrow.

Remember my post on Greg Norman’s first round? Well, it seems like he’s hit another even par and at the top of the leaderboard, one behind K.J. Choi.
Another great news is that David Duval is doing good. He’s been slacking the last couple years but it seems like he’s getting his game back on his favorite golf tournament.
I still would like to see Greg Norman set the world record for the oldest man in history of golf to win a major.
Is it possible?
Yes, I think the way Greg Norman’s mindset is, it’s going to work.
Before, Greg used to put too much pressure on himself and pretty much beat himself. As long as he doesn’t do that and I don’t think he will, he should be able to come up at this year’s British Open.
Go Greg Norman!

British Open - Can Greg Norman Win It?
1 Comment Published July 17th, 2008 in Golf News, Golf Predictions, greg norman.
The news around the block is that Greg Norman might be able to win this year’s British Open if he only believed in himself again.
The former British Champion, Greg Norman, is 1 off the lead by shooting an even par today.
I believe Greg Norman has couple majors that the golfing world owes him. At numerous majors, Greg Norman either got struck by lightening (metaphor here that is) or he simply gave it to the guy standing next to him.
I thought Greg Norman would have won many more majors if he only believed in himself again.
I mean for like 10 years or so, he was the shark. Perhaps, Tigers do scare away sharks but come on.
It’d be like my dream come true if Greg Norman could win the Open this weekend at age 53.
Maybe that’s just my speculation but what the heck, Greg deserve one for sure.
