He'd been ill for some time but still a shock. For me he changed golf from an old man's game into a young person's game.

Very sad news, RIP Seve :(

RIP Seve

R.I.P. Seve. I remember the Sports Personality award being presented a few years ago. Can't quite remember the category.

I've been watching some of the tributes to him today. When looking at clips of him - his face and his voice just bring a massive grin to my face. The guy was lovely. Sad that two of golf's brightest an most colourful stars died young - Seve and Payne Stewart.

Awful, if not entirely unexpected news given how he'd been reportedly struggling recently. RIP, sport has lost one of its true stars.
