Golf Legend diagnosed with brain tumour by francisrivera

A sad news hits the golfing world when one of the best Golf players in the mid 1970's and mid 1990's was diagnosed witha severe disease. This great golfer won 5 majors including 3 Open Championships.

Golf legend Seve Ballesteros has been diagnosed with a brain tumour and will undergo a biopsy on Tuesday.

The Spaniard was admitted to Madrid's La Paz hospital on 6 October after briefly losing consciousness.

The hospital said on Friday he had left intensive care, having been "admitted because of a partial epileptic fit".

But on Sunday, Ballesteros, 51, said: "I inform you that after an exhaustive check that was realised at Hospital La Paz, a brain tumour has been detected."
