I was in Greenville SC yesterday for a function and one of the guys there was a relative of Gary Player who has a home in the area IIRC.
We were outside getting some air as it was a really warm place and got to talking about golf and whatnot (tiger was the initial topic) and he mentioned this. I knew that Seve had been ill....but no idea it was to be fatal as has been described. This guy was almost in tears as he described the man he knew for years...since he was a young man.
Terrific golfer and from what I learned, an amazing human.
