Long-time Golf writer and journalist, Tim Rosaforte, has been reported dead. He died at the age of 66 in Palm Beach Gardens in Florida.
Rosaforte worked at Golf Channel until his retirement in 2019. He sadly died of Alzheimer’s disease.
He was one of the most loved voices when it comes to Golf. Many call him a good story narrator.
“The PGA Tour family lost a friend today in Tim Rosaforte, one of the great golf journalists of his generation,” PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said in a statement. “Tim was an amazing storyteller and spent much of his energy showcasing what sets golf apart from other sports — the people and the personalities.”
“Our colleague Tim Rosaforte passed away today after a battle with aggressive Alzheimer’s. Just 66. Beloved in golf. Broke stories, but never his word. Unselfish, tough but tender, trusted friend who’d do anything for you, a genuinely good soul. May his memory be a blessing.”, Rich Lerner tweeted.
