Clinton Accident Upsetting To Norman

Associated Press

Greg Norman says President Clinton’s fall on the steps of the golfer’s Florida home has been tough to handle.

“There was nothing we could have done,” Norman told Atlanta-based sports network CNN/SI on Monday. “It wasn’t our fault, but you feel guilty. You feel the emotional draining of it all.”

Clinton was leaving Norman’s home at Hobe Sound on Florida’s east coast when he stumbled on the stairs early Friday and tore a tendon in his knee, requiring surgery.

Clinton and Norman had forged a friendship on the golf course. Clinton mentioned several times before the trip he would love to play with Norman on his vacation. The accident prevented them from playing.
