MIAMI – Australian golf champion Greg Norman yesterday said he has been hospitalised with Covid-19 symptoms, posting an Instagram photo of himself in a hospital bed.
The 65-year-old, a former world No. 1 who won the 1986 and 1983 British Opens, on Thursday said he is experiencing virus symptoms despite testing negative on Tuesday and quarantining in his Jupiter, Florida, home.
Yesterday, Norman posted a photo of himself with medical equipment in the background, an NFL Pittsburgh Steelers mask over his lower face, and the caption: “This sums it all up. My Christmas Day.”
He said that he wants to “get this (virus) behind us never to experience it again”.
Norman earlier said he is experiencing a mild fever, cough, aches and pains, and a headache.
He competed in last week’s PNC Championship in Orlando with his son, Greg Jr, finishing in a share of ninth. – AFP, December 26, 2020
