Golf legends Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus have both paid tribute to the 15-time major winner amidst his absence following his arrest last month.
“My heart goes out for him,” Player said. “There’s nothing worse than living through pain and every day. He’s a huge asset for golf and done so much for the game.”
Nicklaus added: “I think golf needs him and would love to have him back.”
