    Bruce William Devlin
    (born 10 October 1937) is an Australian
    professional golfer
    ,
    sportscaster
    and
    golf course designer
    . Devlin was born in
    Armidale, Australia
    . He turned pro in 1961 and joined the
    PGA Tour
    in 1962 after an amateur career in Australia which included a win at the Australian Amateur in 1959. During his PGA Tour career, he had eight victories all of which occurred between 1964 and 1972. In 1972, he earned 9,768 and finished eighth on the money list.
    On the Senior PGA Tour, Devlin won one tournament, the 1995
    FHP Health Care Classic
    . At the end of the 1998 golf season, Devlin decided to retire from the Senior PGA Tour to concentrate on his Golf Course Architecture and Design business and his commitment to ESPN's Golf Telecasts.
    The main focus of Devlin's career in the past 30 years has been his work as a Golf Course Architect and Designer. Devlin has designed and built more than 150 golf courses throughout the world including Australia, Japan,
    Scotland
    , the
    Bahamas
    , and the United States. About two-thirds of the golf courses he designed have been in Florida and
    Texas
    . Many of these courses have hosted all of the professional golf tours, including: The Houston Open,
    HealthSouth LPGA Classic
    , Key Biscayne Golf Classic, and The Nike Cleveland Open. His golf design business is based in
    Scottsdale, Arizona
    . Devlin has also worked as a television commentator. He worked for
    NBC
    from 1977 to 1982;
    ESPN
    from 1983 to 1987; and since 1999 has occasionally covered professional golf for ESPN.
    At the 72nd hole of the 1975
    Andy Williams-San Diego Open Invitational
    , Devlin shot a 10 after hitting multiple shots into the water in front of the 18th green of the
    Torrey Pines South Course
    . The pond was thereafter nicknamed "Devlin’s Billabong".
    Devlin is one of only four golfers to have scored a
    double eagle
    (three-under-par) at the
    Masters Tournament
    . He achieved this in the first round of the 1967 Masters, holing a 4-wood from 248 yards on the par-5 8th hole.
