Two-time major champion Angel Cabrera, released on parole from an Argentina prison in August for gender violence, has been cleared to play in PGA Tour-sanctioned events. He said in a Golf Digest interview he wants to clean up his image from “serious mistakes.” 

Without confirming Cabrera was ever suspended — the PGA Tour does not publicise conduct violations — a tour spokesman confirmed the 54-year-old Argentine is eligible to play.
