Arguably the most successful athlete-turned-businessman in the world,
Greg Norman is known as much for his entrepreneurial spirit in the
boardroom as his dominance on the golf course. The internationally
renowned “Great White Shark” has won more than 90 tournaments worldwide,
including two Open Championships, and holds the distinction of defending
his No. 1 position in the world golf rankings for 331 weeks. Greg Norman
now transcends the game of golf, with over a dozen companies around the

golf-inspired lifestyle apparel and diverse investments around the
