Gee, what a shock, Greg Norman failed to close the deal on a major championship Sunday. Norman, known for meltdowns and stunning defeats in golf’s biggest tournaments, had a chance at 53 to become the oldest winner of a major when he entered the fourth round of the British Open leading by two shots. Perhaps he should have watched some episodes of “The Closer,” the TV show that TNT kept flashing those annoying commercials for during its early morning coverage. Predictably, the Great White Shark’s honeymoon ended in disappointment as Chris Evert’s new husband shot a 77 at Royal Birkdale and finished T-3, six strokes behind Padraig Harrington, who successfully defended his championship. Harrington played the final six holes in four under par, including an eagle the 17th hole to cement the win.

Perhaps you are just jealous of Greg. Palmer lost more majors than GN. Many of the best players of all time lost more majors down the stretch than they won. They were there many times, in the game. Is Palmer a loser?.... GN isn't either.
