AFA is saddened to learn of the passing of professional golfer and CBS analyst, Peter Oosterhuis. He had been battling early onset Alzheimer's.
In an interview with Golf Digest after his diagnosis he said:
"In golf, you never know what tomorrow might bring. We learn never to get discouraged when we shoot a high score, because tomorrow we might find something and shoot lights out. It happens all the time. A cure for Alzheimer's could come down very soon. So I promise to just keep swinging."
