Ballesteros advised against St Andrews return

Seve Ballesteros will not be making an emotional return to St Andrews next month after all, his doctors advising him against playing in the eve-of-Open four-hole Champions Challenge.

The three-time champion, who retired from competition in 2007, underwent repeated brain surgery after collapsing with a tumour two years ago, but had hoped to revisit the scene of his 1984 triumph.
