From the article:

The cause of his death was not immediately clear.

[–] jeffw@lemmy.world 16 points 5 months ago (2 children)

He has a history of depression, withdrew from a tournament, and died the next day.

The facts point in a specific direction but I’m sure time will tell.

Didn’t you read the title? He exited the PGA and died. It was the exiting the PGA that killed him

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 8 points 5 months ago

Or maybe he exited the tournament because he was about to die? Which one the cause, which one the effect? We can only see the correlation.
