Very encouraging news about Seve.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/golf/7761558.stm

Seve is quoted as follows

There is a long recovery time ahead and I shall keep fighting with patience and determination," he said.

On a statement on his website, he paid tribute to the medical staff and the care he had received at the hospital.

"Thanks to them I will be able to play the mulligan of my life, which I expect to enjoy at my best," he said.

"Occasionally I was a rebel patient and therefore I ask them to forgive me and thank everyone for all the cares received."

It is good to hear of his determination and courage and his recognition that although the road to full recovery is still long he is prepared for the journey.

God Bless You Seve.

I second the proposal. Seve would be delighted that hundreds of golf fans wish him well on this BBC forum.

Very poignant and emotional interview with Seve as reported in the papers .

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/golf/article6005697.ece

Amidst all the pain, suffering and the inevitable long road to recovery there are still flashes of Seve's greatness and why we love him so much.

"Ballesteros talks vividly about the affection in which he is held in Britain and how his career took off in the United Kingdom. Baldomero, his brother, has told him that when he woke up after one of his operations, his first words were along such lines: “British Open. Must win it Saturday.” "

Just get better Champ.

The scars of his operation are clearly visibly but his spirit shines through.
