On the morning of the 1996 Masters, Greg Norman, one of the most prolific golfers of his time, was feeling pretty good about his chances of winning the major tournament, as he had a 6-stroke lead over his opponent, Nick Faldo. For the first three rounds, Norman had pretty much kicked Faldo’s butt and it seemed like spectators were in for a very embarrassing loss. And they got to see one, but the one losing didn’t end up to be Faldo, but Norman. In the final round, the Aussie went from leading with 6 strokes to spare, to losing by 5. Yikes.
