Seve Ballesteros retires from golf

Add comments

Seve Ballesteros officially retired from competitive golf, ending a career that included five majors and 50 victories on the European Tour, along with Ryder Cup success.

Ballesteros turned 50 in April, and had made an effort to play again on the Champions Tour, as well as an ill-fated two rounds at the 2007 Masters.

“I don’t have the desire,” Ballesteros said at Carnoustie, where he made his British Open debut in 1975.

    Adios, caballero. Nos diste los mejores momentos de drama, de bravura, de machismo, del golf de los 70 y los 80. Felicitaciones. Te echaremos de menos

    The day he let Mac O'Grady bury pictures of his swing in the desert, was the day he buried his game. Although his swing had subtle imperfections, it was a thing of beauty---and it worked. He had more majors in him. Good luck, Amigo. You have had more than most of us will ever have. Like the saying goes, "Better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all." Likewise, it is better to have been the best, than never been good at all.
