MELBOURNE — Former world number one golfer Greg Norman has lashed young Australian tennis players Nick Kyrgios and Bernard Tomic for behaving "stupidly" on tour and offered to lecture them face-to-face on the values of good sportsmanship.
Tomic and Kyrgios have drawn scathing criticism from players and pundits for a raft of transgressions on and off the court.
World number 20 Tomic has clashed with Australian tennis officials over funding and was arrested by Miami police for holding a noisy hotel room party earlier this year.
Kyrgios, ranked 32, was roundly condemned for a lewd slur directed at opponent Stan Wawrinka during a match in Canada and has continued to rack up fines for poor on-court behaviour on the Asian swing of the ATP tour.
