Former PGA Golf Legend Seve Ballesteros

Ballesteros, 50, who will be at the Open Championship at Carnoustie next week even though he will not play, has issued a statement deploring reports about his health.
Creativity, imagination and short-game brilliance were the hallmarks of Ballesteros' game.



Seve Ballesteros officially retired from competition Monday, ending a charismatic career filled with five major championships, a record 50 victories on the European Tour and a fighting spirit that rejuvenated Europe in the Ryder Cup.
