Seve Ballesteros will make his first appearance in a stroke play event for two years this week when he tees up in the Open de Madrid at Club de Campo in Spain’s Capital city.
The five times Major Champion has battled an arthritic back and knee problems to regain his fitness ready for his comeback, fittingly at the Club de Campo course where, in 1995, Ballesteros won the last of his 50 European Tour titles. It was also in this event, which he has won three times, that the legendary Spaniard last graced the fairways in stroke play competition.

5+ after 16. Looks like he needs a few lessons from David Duval. But good to see the maestro back again. I'll bet his short game is still electric!
