Bruce Devlin should shut up!

Bruce Devlin has some balls for criticizing Greg Norman about not playing in the Australian Open. Devlin called Norman selfish and said he does not help the sport of golf in Australia. Devlin also said Norman should do more publicly to thank Aussies who have supported him in the past.

Here's what Norman had to say, "Considering I've played the Australian Open 23 times in my career, I have supported the event as well as any other Australian professional."

Norman has not played in the Aussie Open, which happens to coincide with Thanksgiving, in 4 years. "It's my life and I like to spend time with my family. My children are in college in the U.S. The only time they come home are for long weekends like Thanksgiving."

When I think of Australia and golf the first thought that comes to mind is koala bears, but after that it's Greg Norman. Bruce Devlin you should shut up and not criticize the man that put Australian golf on the map.

Hopefully Greg will read this and invite me to play at his golf club up in Hobe Sound The Medalist.
