This week The European Tour is in Madeira for the 20th staging of the Madeira Islands Open – Portugal. The event has been played at three different venues since 1993 and this year returns to Santo de Serra for the first time since 2008.

The world of golf will gather for the funeral of five-time Major Champion Seve Ballesteros in the small parish church of San Pedro de Pedreña today.

We pay tribute to Severiano Ballesteros Sota, who died on May 7, and look back at the life and career of one of the greatest sportsmen in history.

Seve Ballesteros died at his home in Pedreña, northern Spain, in the early hours of Saturday morning when he finally lost his courageous battle at 2.10am.

The Seve Ballesteros Foundation will be the chosen charity for next month’s BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth Club, a fitting celebration for the 20th anniversary of the great Spaniard’s last victories at the famous Surrey venue.
