Seve Ballesteros OK after cart fall

MADRID (AP) — Seve Ballesteros, who has been battling brain cancer for more than a year, has fully recovered after falling off a golf cart and banging his head on the ground last week in Pedrena, northern Spain.

The three-time British Open champion underwent hospital exams for four days before being discharged. The 52-year-old Spaniard banged his head on the ground when he fell out of the vehicle.

In 2008, Ballesteros underwent surgery after being diagnosed with a brain tumor.
