Default Seve: The Legend

Just watched Seve:The Legend, weeping like a baby at the mo. He was always the golfer who jumped out of the page, who Peter Alliss saved his greatest anecdotes and embellished descriptions for, and who I always wanted to win. I was in Afghanistan when the recurrence of his awful cancer was revealed by his family, and was devastated. His death was obviously just round the corner.

I Implore anyone who doesnt really know the legend that is Seve to watch the doc on iPlayer, and try to see as much of his golf as possible. He truly was an inspirational feller, whether it was battling cancer or trying to get as near to the pin as possible from a parking lot.

I was the same when I watched it, bought tears to my eyes .
Watching Azinger sqwerm when being pulled up by Seve and Ollie during the War on the Shore Ryder Cup was a great memory he loved beating the Yanks . Sad to see him in those last few interviews he did

I echo the above sentiments.

An amazing golfer, a proper gentleman and a real legend. Never to be forgotten and I feel privileged to have seen his entire career. It's been said that European golf would not be where it is now without him, so a lot of our current stars own him a huge debt.

RIP Seve and thanks for some amazing memories.
