very sad for his little girls

Australian golfer Jarrod Lyle will spend his final days surrounded by loved ones after making the decision to go into palliative care.

The 36-year-old has been undergoing his third stint of cancer treatment after a recurrence of acute myeloid leukaemia last year.

There has been an outpouring of sadness from golf fans around the world after his wife Briony updated Lyle's social media pages last night.

Briony has been posting about her husband's deteriorating health during recent months, but her most recent update to his followers on Facebook and Instagram confirmed the bad news.



My heart breaks as I type this message. Earlier today Jarrod made the decision to stop active treatment and begin palliative care. He has given everything that he’s got to give, and his poor body cannot take anymore. We’ll be taking him closer to home in the next couple of days so he can finally leave the hospital.

There is simply not enough time to get this message out to everyone individually, so for some of our really close friends and family I cannot apologise enough for breaking the news in this way. We have done our best to ‘control’ the narrative surrounding Jarrod’s illness and treatment, and as more and more people become involved in this final process I’m not sure how much longer this development will remain private.

Jarrod knows he is loved, and the thousands of prayers and well wishes that have been sent his way have kept him going through some incredibly tough times. But he has reached his limit, and the docs have finally agreed that they can no longer strive for a positive outcome.

My focus as of today is on our girls and doing whatever I can to get them through the challenges ahead. Jarrod will be closer to them very soon, and will spend as much time as he can with them.

When it’s appropriate, I will post details of a memorial service. In the meantime we ask that you respect our privacy at this difficult time.

Horrible stuff, very sad for the Lyle family. I can't imagine the feeling of cuddling my kids one last time knowing I was going to pass at any moment. Doesn't bear thinking about

This is the Dragons ladies team.

Is the blonde bottom far right photo-shopped ? Small face on Jack de Belin's body ?

Very sad

I dont know if i could even handle that kind of illness/treament once. Doing it over and over would certainly do me in.

Hope he can go out in a reasonable way .... it would be hard but i am totally pro euthanasia for such cases. .... not saying anything like that mentioned about his case - but boy it would be hard to just drag on into really bad illness
