It appears that golf legend Greg Norman is leaving the United States for good and returning to his old stomping grounds of Australia.
Known as the Great White Shark of pro golf, Norman and his wife, Kiki, have found a buyer for their $ 40 million Colorado ranch, The Post reports.
Sources say the sale is expected to close in the coming weeks, just a month after the entrepreneur and golfer found a buyer for his $ 60 million Florida compound he built from the ground up.
And Norman, 66, makes a hefty profit on the sale. He bought the farm in Meeker, Colorado, in 2004 for $ 9.5 million.
The Post has reached out to its representatives for comment.
Norman marketed the house in 2016 for $ 55 million, but dropped the price significantly – by $ 15 million. Still, a whopping $ 30 million in profit remains.
Sitting in a huge 11,900 acre property, the lodge consists of eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
It has been described as “one of the best trophies for big game hunting and fish farms in Colorado.”
The estate is called the “Seven Lakes Ranch” and is used as a sports paradise.
Located in the coveted White River Valley of the Flat Tops Mountains, the home offers panoramic views of nature and wildlife.
In addition to the 13,907 square foot lodge, a variety of cabins and a lounge / dance room provide accommodation for many guests.
On March 14, his 52-year-old wife posted about missing their old Florida home.
“Our beloved Shark Shack. Boy will we miss it. I hope to make it again in Oz soon! 🇦🇺 Designed with ❤️ by #theNormanDesignGroup, ”she wrote in the caption.
In a January column for Stellar magazine, Norman explained how he was ready to move back to his home state of Queensland, Australia.
‘I miss Australia. I miss the way it sounds. Not long ago I was on the phone with my parents and the sounds of the bird life in the background were slightly different.
And the smell of Australia… it’s so clean and fresh. I like the coffee and I miss the people; they are so easy going … I want to get back to Australia as soon as possible. To be honest, I am thinking about coming home every second day. “
In 2019, he told the Daily Telegraph he was on the hunt for real estate Down Under.
“Yes, we are (looking). I’d rather not say what we’re looking for and no, we didn’t buy anything. “
Norman spent 331 weeks as the world’s # 1 ranked golfer in the 1980s and 1990s. He has won 89 professional tournaments, including 20 PGA Tour tournaments and two majors: the Open Championships in 1986 and 1993.
The move to sell both of his US properties followed his battle with COVID-19 in December.
“I am fit and strong and have a high tolerance for pain, but this virus kicked me like nothing I’ve ever experienced before,” Norman wrote on Instagram.
