In 1989, IMG agent Hughes Norton showed up at Earl Woods’ front door. Tiger was 12—but Norton could see the future. He would go on to become Tiger’s first agent, inking the future legend to record-setting deals with Nike and Titleist before he hit one ball as a pro. But, as you’ll hear in Norton’s new sit-down with host Tom Coyne, all that fame and fortune came at a heavy price. In this interview, Norton pulls back the curtain to reveal the soaring highs and stomach-churning lows from his 35+ years as one of golf’s premier agents. Fleshing out tales from his new memoir, Rainmaker, Norton offers blow-by-blow accounts of previously unseen Tiger moments, sheds new light on Greg Norman’s decades-long grudges, offers an inside look at the birth of IMG and reflects on how history may just judge Arnold Palmer as the game’s true moral compass.
