Greg Norman becomes TaylorMade Tour Staff Player

This isn’t an April fool’s joke.

Greg Norman has inked a deal with TaylorMade. The Shark will play the TP Red golf ball (which he played in that great performance at the (British) Open last year, TaylorMade golf clubs, TM staff bag and a TM logo on the side of his hat. Yes the side. There’s NO way the Shark would let his Shark logo play 2nd fiddle to any other.

What about MacGregor?

Not sure what the ramifications are with this deal and Greg’s relationship/investment in MacGregor Golf, which is still sporting Greg’s photos on their home page.

Norman video on the switch, The Masters

In this nine minute video, Norman explains his decision to switch to TaylorMade. He also mentions playing golf at The Masters this year. He says the length of Augusta National makes Beth Page Black look like a pitch-and-putt course.

Sorry to hear the Greg is leaving MacGregor behind. This recession is certainly reshaping the industry. Unfortunately, I fear that some manufacturers will not make it to the end of year.

Do you think MacGregor is in danger? I know they’re not among the biggest, but they’re certainly classic.
