Ballesteros Strong through Cancer Treatment
Seve Ballesteros, three-time Masters British Open champion and two-time Masters champion, is staying strong through his second round of chemotherapy to treat a brain tumor. The 51-year-old Spaniard underwent three surgeries in the fall after fainting at Madrid’s Barajas International Airport on October 6. He is scheduled to begin a third regiment of chemotherapy next week.
Said Ballesteros to the Associated Press, “The results of the checkup were really positive. Better even than the first ones. I will start my third chemotherapy round shortly and hope it will be in the same line as the previous ones.”
