Along with an ability to drive a golf ball better than anyone with a persimmon club, Greg Norman had a keen awareness of his own worth as a golfer, especially as it applied to securing fees for his participation.
Norman makes no secret of this. The Australian golfer who earned the nickname the "Great White Shark" and suffered heartbreak along with an abundance of success throughout a Hall of Fame career knew that the best golf in the world was being played on the PGA Tour in the United States.
But he also saw opportunity beyond the tour's borders, and always wanted to explore them.
