All around the b5media Sports Channel today, bloggers are talking about the worst moments in sports. There are certainly a lot of “worst” moments in golf, but one in particular stands out to me–Greg Norman’s loss to Nick Faldo at the 1996 Masters Tournament.

For those unfamiliar with this debacle, Norman was leading the tournament by six strokes starting the final round. In fact, he’d carded a course record 63 on the first round.

However Sunday was not to be his day. Before the round was over, Norman scored five bogeys, two double bogeys, and hit his tee shot into the water at the 12th hole. When the dust cleared, he shot a 78, ending the day five strokes behind Faldo. Norman never contended for a major title again.
