"The Greatest Ballstriker that Ever Lived"
   

“Only two players have ever truly owned their swings: 
Moe Norman and Ben Hogan.”

-- Tiger Woods

 

In a 2004 USA Today Q&A interview, VJ Singh was asked: Who's the best golfer you've ever seen?

Singh answered: "Moe Norman. I've hit balls with him lots of times. He was incredible. Whatever he said he could do, he could do. If you talk to Lee Trevino and the other greats of the game, they'll tell you how good he was. He could talk it, and he could do it. God gives people little gifts, and Moe had a gift for golf." 


"There has never been a more colorful character in golf than Moe Norman. His legendary accuracy and prolific tournament record are renowned throughout the world. Among his many victories are two Canadian Amateurs, two CPGA Championships and seven CPGA Senior Championships along with multiple victories in the Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan Opens. Though his idiosyncrasies kept Norman from enjoying a brief PGA Tour career, he returned to Canada where his ball-striking ability and love of the game earned him a place in the hearts of all Canadian golfers."

-- Canadian Golf Hall of Fame
