Hall of Fame golfer Greg Norman says he’s lucky to have his left hand after being injured in a chainsaw accident.
The Shark, who spent 331 weeks as the No. 1 golfer in the world, posted a picture on his Instagram page Saturday of him lying in a hospital bed, letting fans know he was “injured, but not down and out.”

The morning after the accident, Norman posted a photo (which you can see above) of him standing shirtless near what he called “the seen of the crime,” wearing the same purple guard on his left arm that he was pictured wearing in his hospital bed.
