Golf world heartbroken over Lyle's latest update

Jarrod Lyle and his family revealed on Tuesday that the former PGA Tour player's body was no longer able to fight its battle against leukemia.

Lyle, a peer favorite on every tour on which he competed, has been placed on palliative care. Upon hearing the news, the golf world reacted with sadness.

Life is precious and we all take it for granted too often - seeing the picture of @jarrodlylepga hugging his family with not long to live brought tears to my eyes. Peace be with you, you will be missed Jarrod x
