I saw a Faldo interview about this Masters where he said he thought a 67 in the final round would win the tournament - thstvis a 5 under round, he trailed Norman by 6 after the 3rd round. In other words he KNEW Norman would choke....which he did.
Greg Norman showed his class with his reaction. Everyone thought his name was on the trophy on the Fourth day, but a remarkable collapse. Many a club bending racquet smashing brat could learna lot from him. God bless
Used to be a norman fan. This gutted me at the time. Now, the soul seller that turned his back on the tour that paid his millions so that he could have his toys and his lavish lifestyle is nothing more than a soul selling traitor! Long live Faldo, and I'm sooooo glad that the traitor doesn't own a green jacket! And I chuckled that he had to buy his own ticket just to get into the Masters this year.
This has become my favorite masters to watch. Why, you ask? Because Greg Norman has shown himself to be a golfer, a millionaire golfer, who would rather take money from the blood thirsty Saudi’s, people who would kill you just because you have different opinions, and in the process destroy the PGA tour, that win a green jacket.
@deantaylor5614 Thank you! My Monday morning coffee is now tepid, so that your comment sent it shooting out my nostrils caused me no pain. It’s rainy and cold in Minneapolis today, but the Great White Shart just warmed me from the inside-out with cackling laughter. Great way to start the week. 🙏🏽✌🏽💙 from Minnesota
Faldo did shoot 67 (-5) that day. So I mean assuming everything played out like it did, Greg still would have have to shoot 72 (E) to beat him outright. Shooting even par on the last day of a major isn’t necessarily the easiest thing to do.
@@Kevin-lf4xx Yeah I think it’s not so much the “collapse” that people remember so much…well he he did collapse to a point, but it was more the fact that Faldo beat him by by 11 shots that day. Greg shot 78, so he started up by 6 and ended the day losing to Faldo by 5. Faldo did make a meaningless birdie putt on 18 when the pressure was totally off though, but still.
not when you're supposed to be number one golf pro in the world and playing at the top of your game. Jack Nicklaus would have never given up a six-shot lead on the final day of a major. Most great players never even get the chance to blow a lead that big.........Norman is a choke. always was and always will be. it keeps him awake at night.
You idiot. Norman was a terrific player , you'll never know what it's like to ever know anything about sport .you yanks really are wankers , the man was world no 1 for 331 weeks , you just stick to baseball cos you know fuck all about real . sport
@@TAYLORFAN50 How many times did Colin Montgomerie win the European Order of Merit? It was 8 times - including a 7-year consecutive run - yet he never won a major. I agree with you....being No.1 means nothing if you can't bring the big one home. I bet Montgomerie would give up all of those Orders of Merit for one Open win.
Yes Nick Faldo played a great round, but Greg Norman completely disintegrated on Sunday, causing an ELEVEN SHOT SWING! That’s what is known as CHOKING, especially considering how highly experienced Greg Norman was at that stage of his career. I think the other contributory factor was that Greg has had so many big tournaments snatched away from him by some miraculous golf shots!
Agreed, but good players do still choke. Rory led by 4 into the final round 2011 Masters & tied for 15th, 10 shots back, or a 14 shot swing. Retief Goosen led by 3 shots going into the 2005 US Open final round, shoots 81 to lose by 8 in an 11 shot turn-around. Unfortunately for those players, it happens but at least they have been major winners anyway.
@@Tigerwoods663 Choking/nerves happen in the final round, when the tournament is on the line. Is there an occasion where a player has shot 77 & won a Major? They would be most likely missing the cut.
For many many reasons Norman has a chip on his shoulder. Someday, when he looks back , he might realize the chip is LIV. And nobody likes it , nor him now.
Overtakes is the word you were looking for. Overhaul means to rebuild. As great as he was, poor Norman choked hard on some mighty big stages.
I think you are thinking about things too much
@@richardmorris6875I think he’s right on!
You know it's bad when the winner genuinely feels sorry for you. Credit to Faldo for his 67, and credit to Norman for taking it as well as he did.
Funny how now we’re glad Faldo won it spared us a lot more than we realized
I get into trouble with my fellow-Australians for saying Norman choked ... but if that wasn't a choke, there's no such thing as a choke.

1996: we feel bad for Greg Norman
Today: thank god Faldo beat Norman we don’t have to deal with him at the masters champions dinner
The biggest choke of all times. Good.
That one of the biggest choke artists in sports is an Aussie is no surprise.
Trust me Norman would not have felt sorry for Nick at all if this was reversed
I never realized how satisfying this video would be until LIV reared its ugly head.

The LIV is offering insane amounts of money. Are you sure if offered to you, you wouldn’t take?
💯 TRUTH.
@@carlbaumeister3439May I answer that? No. I would not take one penny from the Saudis. Those who have will live to regret it.
@@AmericanFlyOnTheWall Fair enough.
You’d be the first to take the money….goose comment
They should play this in a loop at the LIV events so people remember greg is a loser
Yeah I bet Norman wishes he was as successful as you f##kwit
Welcome to Faldo's garage: Adjusted and tuned the Norman muscle car back to it's default settings as a Yugo.
Great white shart

Faldo didn't overhaul Norman. Norman did it to himself, he collapsed and fell

67 was best round of the day.

@@Whoopdido77778 isn’t a collapse .. ?..
@@Whoopdido777 Blowing a 6 shot lead in the final round any any tournament is CHOKING!!!
He’s still pissed at the PGA.
yep, blames them for everything. had he had won 5 or 6 majors; he would never be doing what he is doing now with LIV golf. he's a bitter man.
Big Greg 🍾🍾 merchant 😢😢
The biggest in all of sports 🤦🏾♂️⛳
Thats golf 6in front loose by two great viewing on a sunday night
Great. White. Shart.
I think the Great Wa Catfish/whatever, was thinking about the LIV league back then.😂😂😂😂
6 shots can be given back in a few holes

@@pb12661 Norman spent 331 weeks as world number one. He did not get there by choking.
Crushing loss for all Shark fans.
At the time yes. Now OH HELL NO! the traitor sold his soul!
Shout out to Steve Rider on the voiceover
For a while, the most desirable position to be in a PGA tourney was 3 shots behind Norman with 5 holes to play.
Ha ha brilliant. Bottled it.
Delusional, he earned his money through the PGA Tour and they earned plenty because of him and those just like him.
Greg Norman=biggest choker in tour history!
You idiot. Norman was a terrific player , you'll never know what it's like to ever know anything about sport .you yanks really are wankers , the man was world no 1 for 331 weeks , you just stick to baseball cos you know fuck all about real . sport
Yep. But still world number 1 for 331 weeks only Tiger has more. So he’s one of the greatest.

So does the player who shoots 77 in the first round and win the tournament get the label of choker ??
