10 highlights of 2016 you might not remember

Greg Norman’s tenure at FOX Sports

Greg Norman was fired as the lead analyst of the FOX Sports Golf team after working only one year. He got replaced by Brad Faxon and Paul Azinger.

“We had, quite honestly, incredible pre-game meetings, post-game meetings, and there was never any indication that I was going to get the boot up my butt," Norman said. "So it came as a total surprise to me. And the reasons for it are just so off base. They called me ‘unpredictable.’ That’s basically the reason why they let me go.”

The Shark was fired in January on the basis of his performance at the US Open at Chambers Bay with some people citing that he only knew about Australian players and not enough abouut US players.
