 "Greg Norman almost severs hand with chainsaw")
Golf great Greg Norman said on Sunday he was recovering in a US hospital after almost cutting off his hand with a chainsaw. Australia’s former world No.1 posted a photo to Instagram of himself lying in a hospital bed with his left arm heavily bandaged.

I was one lucky man today. Damaged, but not down & out. Still have left hand,” Norman tweeted. Norman last week posted a photo of himself working with a chainsaw to cut back a small tree at what appears to be one of his seaside properties. Norman had one of the most high-profile careers in golf, winning two British Opens and reigning as world No.1 for 331 weeks in the 1980s and 1990s. AFP
