Yesterday's British Open didn't have the storybook ending Greg Norman probably would've hoped for, but two people that were probably thrilled Norman faltered in the final round yesterday were his ex-wife and current wife Chris Evert's ex-husband. Although rumors about a passionate affair between the two geriatric athletes were rampant during the time of their divorces, both Norman and Evert adamantly denied their lustful urges played any part in the dissolution of their marriages. Until now, that is, as Evert goes on record with Vogue admitting that she and Norman were just two star-crossed geezers looking to engage in all sorts of hip-breaking activities in the bedroom.

All weekend the world was talking about Greg Norman's resurgence, briefly forgetting what he normally does on Sunday. (Fortunately, he reminded us almost immediately.) Then for about 10 minutes the hot golfer was Britain's Ian Poulter. Even for a split second, Jim Furyk's finish of +10 might have been good enough for a playoff. Then we remembered Padraig Harrington was the guy who won The Open Championship last year, and when we didn't believe him, he just had to go and win the thing again. So I think at least every major English accent was the frontrunner this weekend. Consider it a victory over the Romance languages. More »

Not since 1066 has England been this shocked of a Norman ruling their empire. Greg Norman, winner of the '86 and '93 Opens, is the clubhouse leader after 54 holes with 2-over-par. He was a half-inch from finishing the 18th hole with a chip-in and another few inches from an eagle on 17. A couple more breaks and the 53-year-old newlywed might possess a four-stroke lead. More »

Right now Norman's the leader at even par. Of course in 1986 Greg Norman won the "Saturday Slam" by leading all four major tournaments with one day to play. He only managed to win the British Open. He's also the only golfer to have lost a playoff at all four majors. I guess what I'm saying is, Greg Norman defines the golfing yips. More »

Fresh off his one-stroke 18 hole playoff loss to Tiger, the man, the myth, the legend, Rocco Mediate clocked in his first round at -1. So if you had a dream that man boobs were going to own the British Open and you rushed to Vegas to lay your money on Phil, you picked the wrong tits. More »

Greg Norman and Chris Evert were married last night in one of those subdued $2 million weddings in the Bahamas. The guest list included Bush 41 and Bill Clinton. What, no Jim Everett and Jim Rome? The newlyweds reportedly sold exclusive photo rights to a women's magazine and, uh, were a little serious about ensuring no one horned in on that. More »
