Greg Norman 'lucky' to keep left hand after chainsaw accident

Greg Norman feels "lucky" to not have lost his left hand in a Saturday chainsaw accident.

The two-time major winner shared a picture through his Instagram account of him laid up in a hospital bed with his left hand bandaged heavily.

“Working with a chainsaw ALWAYS be respectful of the unexpected,” Norman said in the caption accompanying the photo. “I was one lucky man today. Damaged, but not down & out. Still have left hand.”

The 59-year-old Norman is an outdoorsman with a do-it-yourself attitude. In fact, on Sept. 6, Norman shared a photo on Instagram in which he is wielding a chainsaw.

The caption, in part: " Never ask someone to do something that you can do yourself. Love to work!"
