Australian golfer Jarrod Lyle died Wednesday at the age of 36.
"It breaks my heart to tell everyone that Jarrod is no longer with us," Lyle's wife, Briony, said in a statement, per The Guardian.
He was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia last year and decided to stop receiving treatment last week.
"Earlier today Jarrod made the decision to stop active treatment and begin palliative care," Briony wrote in a Facebook post on July 31. "He has given everything that he’s got to give, and his poor body cannot take anymore.
