Adam Scotts decision to skip the Olympic Games in Rio later this year has been criticised by greats from the world of sport. The world No 7 has decided not to represent Australia in Brazil, citing a busy schedule for his decision to miss the tournament as golf makes a return to the Olympics after a 112-year absence.Reaction to Scotts decision was swift and, in the main, negative with golfing great Jack Nicklaus among those critical of the 35-year-old. I think thats sad. I think its sad for the Olympics and for the game of golf, Nicklaus said.I dont know Adams circumstances, so I couldnt comment on what hes dealing with. Obviously, he felt like he couldnt play, and if he felt that way, I understand. But its unfortunate. Jack Nicklaus feels it is sad Scott is not going to the Games Johnny Miller was also critical of Scott, adding: Playing for your country is a lot bigger than playing for yourself.I would say I dont care how tired you are, and I wouldnt even care where you place in the tournament, but you need to be there to represent your country.The reaction from Australian swimming great Dawn Fraser, a gold medal winner at three Games from 1956 to 1964, was more savage. Triple gold medalist Dawn Fraser was savage in her criticism of the world No 7 Well done Adam great to put your country on hold so that you can fulfil your own schedule, Fraser, 78, wrote on Facebook.How much money do you want in life. I guess working three jobs a week to secure my place as a Olympic swimmer has given me the strength to say what I feel about sportsmen and women that do this.I am still trying to survive at 78 years of age but a very proud Australian. Fraser also accused Scott of not showing much for your country. Also See: No Olympics for Scott Bruce reviews 25 years on Sky PGA Tour Schedule World Rankings Cheap Buffalo Bills Jerseys .

Cheap Minnesota Vikings Jerseys .com) - The Montreal Canadiens will try to halt their longest losing streak of the season when they host the struggling New York Islanders in tonights clash at the Bell Centre. Englands coach, Trevor Bayliss, has said that his players will not back down in the event of further confrontations, following Jos Buttlers heated argument with Bangladeshs fielders during the second ODI on Sunday.Buttler was reprimanded by the ICC match referee, Javagal Srinath, while two Bangladeshis - the captain Mashrafe Mortaza and Sabbir Rahman - were fined 20 percent of their match fee for using language, actions or gestures which ... could provoke an aggressive reaction, following Buttlers dismissal in Englands 34-run defeat at Dhaka.Tempers remained frayed after the match, with Ben Stokes tweeting his displeasure that one of the Bangladeshi fielders - reportedly Tamim Iqbal - had bumped shoulders with Jonny Bairstow during the post-match handshakes.While Bayliss said he did not encourage such behaviour from his players, he added that England would not be changing their ways ahead of the series decider in Chittagong on Wednesday - and added that the ICC sanctions were a good indication of where the blame lay for Sundays scenes.Dont forget there are always two teams in this type of argument and some of the teams around the world are not quite as pristine as they might like to make out, he said. We are not going to back down from anything and certainly we have some characters in the team who will not back down.I havent read the match referees report but they were fined and Jos was warned for retaliating and that in itself tells a bit of a story. I think Jos wearing the captains hat was not going to take it lying down. He got a slap on the wrist and I am sure he will be doing his best to stay out of trouble in the future.The sight of Buttler losing his cool was notable in itself. Despite his raw power as a cricketer, he is one of the more softly spoken members of the England team. However, Bayliss was not unhappy that a steelier side of his character had been revealed to his team-mates.Since I have been here it is the first time Jos has been warned and his role is a little different to what it has been in the past, Bayliss said.dddddddddddd I think he has every right as captain to back his players up.You only have to watch some of our pre-match football matches to see the passion he has got. I have no qualms about the passion he shows. He has to be a little more careful about how he reacts, [but] he gets respect for that as well from the rest of the guys. It is a case of just watching what he says and the way he reacts to that.The teams arrived in Chittagong today having flown in the same plane - and sat across the aisle from one another - and with the series tied at 1-1 following Englands dramatic fightback in the opening contest, there will be no shortage of incentive for either side to land the knockout blow. Bayliss, however, urged his players to focus their aggression, especially given the anticipated passion in the stands.I think when playing in the subcontinent, with the crowds and the heat and that type of thing, some of these things can get out of proportion a little bit, he said. We have got to be on the look-out to make sure it does not distract us from the way we want to play the game, and concentrating on what we do. We have spoken about it before, when the Pakistan series started, and there will probably be a reminder from the coach leading into the third game.Reflecting on Sundays loss, Bayliss admitted that England had shown a little bit of inexperience, particularly with the bat, but added: The lesson from both games is that Bangladesh are no pushover. They have a very good team, a very good bowling attack playing in home conditions. A number of the teams have found out over the last 12-18 months they are no push-over. A lot of teams will be reassessing how they approach matches against Bangladesh in the future. ' ' '
