Smith after watching the Manitoba open at Bel acres last week i am fed up to the Teeth with the Prima Donna temperaments of golfers Norman and Young Wayne Vollmer. It that somebody made some elementary distinctions Between colourful antics and downright Boorish behaviour i agree with the experts that Moe Norman is one of the most outstanding strikers of a Golf Ball in the history of the game. I also agree that for sheer flamboyance the world of sports has probably never seen anyone like him. Sports celebrities like Walter Hagen babe Ruth and rocket Richard Are pallid by comparison. Unfortunately Moe Norman is not Only an electrifying golfer judging from his behaviour at Bel acres he is Ani eccentric with the emotional a spoiled ten year old. No other profession a i sport Wou id Tol Erate tantrums that this Man displays before the fans to whom he owes his rather comfortable livelihood Complete with Cadillac and Florida sports writers and broadcasters who excuse everything Norman does and says on the grounds that he is colourful and makes Good Are Only encouraging his . Gant and irresponsible behaviour. Since local sports pundits seem reluctant to distinguish Between nor Man s colourful antics deliberate acts of i offer the follow ing distinctions. Dexterously bouncing a Ball on his. Club head. Between shots running across the Fairway to help another golfer find his playfully lobbing balls at a fan s Midriff taking naps during slow rounds waiting for the third or fourth Call before appearing on the first tee Are All legitimate examples of Norman s making bitter and wildly exaggerated remarks about a Golf course he has been invited to play on throwing his clubs lying Down in the rough in a stupid sulk for a Good five minutes dashing a Glass of soda pop to the ground because it has too much foam in it and refusing to play in the same group with certain competitors whom he does not like last year at Elm Are examples not of color but of inexcusably rude and immature behaviour. But even that is not the worst of it. Most Golf fans at the open last week would have been prepared i am sure to Overlook these temper tantrums embarrassing As they were. What they were not prepared to Overlook was Norman s Sloppy sour grapes play following these fits of temper in both thursday s and Friday s rounds Norman s Golf on the last five or six holes can Only be described As an outrageous he hit All his shots As though he no longer cared. He appeared to miss routine Short putts deliberately. On one occasion on the 17th Hole he chipped haphazardly out of the Bush with one hand. In both of these rounds he could easily have come in with scores of 70 or 72 instead of 74 and 76, and thus remained in Contention. In the Light of this incredible display one can Only conclude that the Man is a Bush league quitter unless he has things entirely his own Way. Norman s complaints about the galleries won t Wash. Either. I have at tended tour events in the states where there were thousands of people milling about and greens. At Bel acres last week there were Model galleries of at most a few Hundred knowledgeable Golf fans. Surely there is an almost ludicrous irony in the fact that the governing bodies of Golf As recent cases the . And Canada have shown Are More concerned with punishing a tour for adding his score incorrectly than for displaying flagrantly bad behaviour on the course. I Challenge the . And the . To do something about Moe Norman s colourful attempt to spoil the Mani Toba open this year. Let them censure Wayne Vollmer while they re at it. Both players should be invited to future Manitoba opens Only on Proba Tion. As a member of Bel acres the Host club i am angered by Norman s behaviour and by the resultant bad publicity. Some of his criticism of the course was ust lied. The rest was not. In private conversations with several of the touring pros and caddies some of us were told that the Bel acres course was much Superior to the course in Georgetown on which the Millar invitational was played the week before. Why did t Norman sound about course local writers have made numerous comments about the remoteness of Bel acres and about the difficulty of find ing it. The Highway signs could have been More prominent in one of his More colourful acts Moe Norman plucked the grass from around the sign for the Benefit of Fine. But Why did coverage of the open omit mention of the fact that there were far More spectators on hand for this year s open than there were at Elmhurst last year or at Glendale the year before and getting Back to Moe Norman How Many of the press and . Commentators noted that the colourful Moe s gallery melted away almost completely on the final Day very Likely As the result not Only of his mediocre play but also because of tils bad behaviour the huge galleries which followed the leading groups in the final round proved that Manitoba Golf fans do not turn out Only to watch Moe Norman. Norman was quoted As saying that Bel acres greens shame your a lot of very hardworking Bel acres members and tournament officials As Well As fans would reply that Norman has shamed not Only himself but the Bel acres club and the 1968 Manitoba open.
