They have known each other for more than a decade and have been there backing each other up. The ‘white shark’ and Trump have played golf together many times.

Once, the major championship winner attended an exclusive interview with News Corp Australia. There, he appreciated how Trump is the future of free America and how he was re-establishing the country as the leader of all the free nations across the globe. Norman believed that he would protect the freedom and democracy of the nations because he had the flag’s symbols, stars, and stripes running through his veins rather than blood.
In the interview, he also revealed that Australian Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, was fascinated by the former POTUS. He wanted Trump to succeed as President. Norman was close to both, and he arranged a phone call for them. Turnbull was the only second leader to congratulate Trump after his win.
Why did Greg Norman believe in Donald Trump?
After they elected Trump as President in 2016, Norman put more faith in him. According to him, Trump won despite running for election against vehement opposition. However, he said that with every passing day, Trump was getting better.

Norman has always backed his friend, which was visible in his words. The world was preparing to pass its judgment on the first 100 days of Trump as president. The LIV CEO was determined to prove that his friend fulfilled his responsibility. Despite not being accepted by everyone, he established himself as a leader. He said, “I think it’s unfair to judge the president in the first 100 days. The learning curve for any newly elected President must be close to vertical.”
Norman believed that it was wrong to judge their potential in the first 100 days of the job as president. Every job has a learning curve, and for the president, it should be close to the learning vertical.
