Norman "lucky" to not lose left hand

Double Open Championship winner Greg Norman has said that he is "lucky" to still have both of his hands after an accident with a chainsaw.

The Australian seemed to suggest that he was close to losing his left hand after posting an Instagram photo of him recovering in hospital.

Norman also offered a warning to his Twitter followers by saying that people should "ALWAYS be respectful" when using a chainsaw.

Norman, who won the Open in 1986 and 1993, was the number one player in the world for a total of 331 weeks in the 1980s and 1990s.
