Golf legend Snead dies

Sam Snead, the USPGA Tour's most prolific title winner of all-time with 81 victories, has died following complications from a stroke.

He was four days short of his 90th birthday.

Known as 'Slammin Sammy', Snead was credited with 135 worldwide wins, including three Masters, three PGA Championships and one Open.

He also won Tour-sponsored events in six different decades.

Last month, he was the lone honorary starter at the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club, a position he held each year since 1984.
