Rest in Peace Seve Ballesteros
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/golf/13311206.stm]Spain
<snip>
Seve Ballesteros, one of golf's most gifted and charismatic players, has died after a long battle with cancer.

The 54-year-old passed away surrounded by his family at his home in Pedrena, northern Spain, in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Ballesteros was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2008 after losing consciousness at Madrid Airport.

The five-time major winner had four operations to remove the tumour as well as undergoing chemotherapy.

You really were too young to die.
Lovely tribute just shown at the beginning of the Madrid tennis semi-final between Nadal and Federer.

1. Vaya con dios, Seve......
I was always hoping he'd beat the cancer and come back and play on the Champions Tour.

RIP.
