After the second round of the Merrill Lynch Shootout, Greg Norman professed his love for tennis great Chris Evert. Toward the end of the taping, Norman appeared on camera with Evert.
The two sports stars have been dating for years, but this was their first public appearance together in the United States.
"She's been phenomenal for me, to me in the last year and a half,'' Norman said. "It's just been tremendous. We've both known each other for a long period of time, since 1976-77. ... We both followed our respective careers all the way through and here we are. She's a very, very special person.''
"I always used to watch him and he always used to watch me,'' Evert said, "and then we finally got to know one another. We found a connection on every level. We do have that respect for each other as people, as well as professional people. We gel and we have a lot of fun together, too.''
Greg Norman has just recently finalized the divorce from Laura, his wife of 25 years. Norman said that he and Evert play tennis together four to five times a week. There was no mention of who wins, but we can all come to our own conclusion.
