Greg Norman to return to the PGA Tour at the AT&T Classic, Sugerloaf after long absence

Posted by under Latest Golf News, Mens Pro Golf

Golf legend Greg Norman didn’t make a single start on the PGA TOUR last season. His only appearance the year before occurred at THE INTERNATIONAL, where he missed the cut.

Surgery limited his schedule for about three years, meaning he only teed it up in a handful of events on the PGA TOUR, Champions Tour and European Tour combined. For the first time since his emergence on the golf scene in the early 1980s, the TOUR wasn’t Shark-infested.

While noticeably missing from golf, the 53-year-old was still making headlines…by getting engaged to tennis superstar Chris Evert. And players could still feel his presence when they played TPC Sugarloaf, a Norman-designed course, for the AT&T Classic.

Now, there’s good news for Norman fans — he’s back.

In fact, he’s back in a number of capacities: as a competitive golfer on the PGA TOUR and Champions Tour; as The President’s Cup captain for the International team in 2009; and as a golf course designer with another challenging test for PGA TOUR players at the now two-year-old Mayakoba Golf Classic at Riviera Maya.
